Scientists Discover a Hidden Gut 'Sense' Communicating with the Brain

Originally Published 5 months ago — by ScienceDaily

Scientists have discovered a 'neurobiotic sense' involving neuropods in the gut that detect microbial proteins like flagellin and send real-time signals to the brain via the vagus nerve, influencing appetite and potentially affecting mood and behavior. This finding highlights a direct neural pathway through which gut microbes can impact human behavior and health.

Scientists Confirm the Gut-Brain Connection as a 'Sixth Sense'

Originally Published 5 months ago — by SciTechDaily

Scientists from Duke University have discovered a new neural communication system between gut microbes and the brain, involving specialized cells called neuropods that detect bacterial proteins like flagellin and send signals via the vagus nerve to regulate appetite and potentially influence behavior, revealing a 'sixth sense' linking the gut and brain in real time.
