Inulin Diet Uncovers Complex Diet-Microbiota-Immune Cell Interactions Remodeling the Gut Epithelium

Investigators described the pivotal role of γδ T lymphocytes and IL-22 in the colon epitehlium microenvironment, as the inulin diet failed to induce epithelium remodeling in mice lacking this T cell population or cytokine, highlighting their importance in the diet-microbiota-epithelium-immune system crosstalk.
