820-Tuft Cell Paracrine Drives Gut–Brain Parasite Defense

This research identifies a sophisticated gut-brain communication pathway where specialized epithelial cells collaborate to detect and combat parasitic infections. The study reveals that tuft cells, which sense pathogens, release acetylcholine through both immediate and long-term mechanisms to signal neighboring enterochromaffin (EC) cells. Upon activation, these EC cells secrete serotonin, which t...去小宇宙查看完整单集简介
