The gut is home to a great number of microbes. The immune system, to protect the body, must discriminate between the pathogenic and non-pathogenic microbes and respond to them in different ways. How the mucosal immune system manages to make this distinction is poorly understood. Here, we explore whether the decision to respond in a certain way to a microorganism is made by single types of cells and molecules or by the collective activity of various kinds of cells and molecules in a given anatomical compartment.
