About this Research Topic
Dietary factors influence immune responses in both humans and animals, with specific nutrients playing crucial roles in immunity when consumed at pharmacological doses. However, contaminants in food can lead to toxicosis and alter immune function. Omics technologies, including genomics, proteomics, metabolomics, and microbiomics, have transformed the study of metabolism and toxicosis. These technologies are now essential for diagnosing and treating immune disorders using animal models. Multi-omics approaches enable the integration of diverse data sources, allowing a comprehensive understanding of the complex pathways underpinning immune dysfunction. This approach provides insights into the systemic flow of information, shedding light on metabolic pathways and mechanisms linking immune disorders to toxicosis.
This research topic encourages the submission of original research and review articles that contribute to advancing the field of immunology in nutrient metabolism and toxicosis. The integration of diverse omics data to elucidate the molecular interrelationships and functions involved is particularly welcome. We are also interested in multi-omics studies that delve into all aspects of immune function in organelles affected by metabolic disorders, as well as mechanisms linking toxicosis and immune dysfunction. Translating these insights into the development of more effective therapeutics is of high priority. Additionally, we invite studies examining specific nutrients or toxins derived from diet or the natural products of microbiota metabolism that positively or negatively impact organelle immunity.
Potential topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
1. Impact of nutrient metabolism on the immune system.
2. Toxicosis with an immune etiology.
3. Natural nutrients (products) in animal health and diseases via potential immune intervention.
4. Integration of multi-omics data providing fundamental new immunological understandings at the molecular, cellular, or organism level.
5. Multi-omics studies on toxicosis-induced immune responses.
