The bidirectional gut-brain-microbiota axis as a potential nexus between traumatic brain injury, inflammation, and disease

Highlights • Neurotrauma can cause a prolonged inflammatory response with primed microglia. • Primed microglia are more susceptible to future insults; both internal and external. • Neurotraumatic events can also induce structural and functional damage to the gut. • Damaged gut increases intestinal p...

Summary:Highlights • Neurotrauma can cause a prolonged inflammatory response with primed microglia. • Primed microglia are more susceptible to future insults; both internal and external. • Neurotraumatic events can also induce structural and functional damage to the gut. • Damaged gut increases intestinal permeability, prompting a systemic immune response. • Microglia are peripherally influenced to exacerbate ongoing CNS inflammation.
