Parasites trigger a gut-to-brain signal that cuts food intake during infection
Researchers found that intestinal tuft cells signal to crypt enterochromaffin cells by releasing acetylcholine, triggering serotonin release and activating a gut-to-brain vagal pathway during type 2 inflammation. This sustained signalling, rather than the initial acute response, was linked to reduced food intake in mouse models of parasitic infection.
