The intestinal microbiome as a separate organ by Yu. O. Shulpekova

“…Interaction of bacteria with the «host» reminds cooperation of usual cells and can be carried out due to receptor binding, paracrine and humoral pathways, as well as due to phagocytosis and endocytosis. Microbes produce hormone-like substances, analogues of growth factors and neurotransmitters that determine two-way interaction of microflora with the central nervous system and its active metabolic role. …”
