Abstract

Autoimmune diseases can be systemic or at local sites, including the gastrointestinal tract. [...]evidence has suggested that persistent autoimmune inflammation and immunosuppressive therapy have been linked to increased cardiovascular risk or cancer [2]. [...]gut microbiota can influence extraintestinal autoimmune disorders, such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA), type 1 diabetes (T1D) and experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) [8]. [...]any practice that alters the composition of gut microbiota, such as dietary habit, physical activity, antibiotic or probiotics treatments and vaccinations, can affect digestive autoimmune diseases. [...]we are now calling for submissions to our Collection on “The digestive system and autoimmunity” to highlight this issue.
