Editorial: Trends in neuroimmunology: cross-talk between brain-resident and peripheral immune cells in both health and disease.

This editorial published in the journal Frontiers in Immunology discusses the importance of understanding the interactions between brain-resident and peripheral immune cells in both health and disease. It highlights several research articles included in a special volume on this topic, covering diverse central nervous system pathologies. The document explores the role of immune cells in various neurological disorders, such as Parkinson's disease and multiple sclerosis, as well as their potential as therapeutic targets. It also discusses the interplay between immune cells and the enteric nervous system in maintaining gastrointestinal homeostasis. The authors hope that this research will encourage further investigation into immunity and the brain for potential clinical interventions in neurological diseases. [Extracted from the article]
