Alterations in composition, diversity, and metabolic activities of commensal microbes can lead to dysbiosis, which may have detrimental consequences, such as autoimmunity, allergy, asthma, inflammatory bowel disease, cancer, and infection [7]
In this Research Topic, a series of 16 articles, encompassing review, original research, and general commentary articles, provide crucial information on how the interplay between host and commensals takes place and how this could be exploited for designing novel prophylactics/therapeutics against a wide spectrum of disorders, including infectious diseases
