Role of immune-derived opioids in intestinal homeostasis
The visceral pain resulting from inflammation-induced neuronal firing is endogenously regulated by opioids locally released by effector CD4+ T lymphocytes generated in response to microbe-derived antigens. Our objective is to better define the role of immune-derived opioids in the intestinal homeostasis including physical barrier function, mucosal immunity, and enteric nervous system activity.
