肠道微生物对肠神经胶质细胞影响的研究进展

Research progress of intestinal microbiota′s effect on enteric glial cells

肠道微生物种类繁多,对肠神经系统起着重要作用。尤其是肠道微生物可影响人类肠神经系统中的肠神经胶质细胞功能。近年来大量研究表明,肠道微生物在肠神经胶质细胞的发生、发展以及免疫功能中发挥着重要作用。这将有望为治疗相关肠道疾病提供新方法。本文就目前肠道微生物对肠神经胶质细胞影响的研究现状做一综述。

Intestinal microbiota, which is composed of deverse microorganism, plays an important role in enteric nervous system, particularly in the enteric glial cells. Recently, numerous researches have shown that intestinal microbiota plays a critical role in the occurrence, development and immunologic function of enteric glial cells. This finding will provide a new way for the treatment of intestinal disorders. In this paper, we provide a brief review of the current researches about the effects of intestinal microbiota on the enteric glial cells.
