Host–Microbiome Interactions
摘要
The human body hosts a diverse community of microorganisms, collectively referred to as the microbiome. This microbiome plays a crucial role in maintaining the overall health and influencing various physiological processes. This chapter delves into the intricate and multidimensional interactions that occur between the host and its microbiome. Through a comprehensive review of the literature, our objective is to elucidate the dynamic interplay that governs these interactions. Specifically, this chapter concentrates on examining how host–microbiome interactions impact health and contribute to the development of diseases and also explores potential therapeutic interventions.
