Abstract
In a recent Cell study, Leonardi et al. show that commensal mucosa-associated gut fungi profoundly impact host immunity, epithelial barrier function, and, unexpectedly, neuroimmune modulation of social behavior. All of these events are controlled by fungal-induced activation of type 17 cytokines that act on both epithelial cells and neurons.Entities:
