This special collection explores how microbiota, diet and metabolites shape the immune system. It includes a viewpoint on gut microbiota biofilms, a review and a research article on the influence of microbiome on immune checkpoint inhibitor response and toxicity, and research articles on the reactivity of IgA to microbiota in health and disease, the promoting effect of microbiota on Th1 cells in the small intestine lamina propria and CCR6+ ILC3s, the impact of diet on immune cell subsets, the roles of metabolites in regulating host responses during infection and inflammation, as well as the modulation of microbiota.
