The study aims to explore the role of paracrine and neural signaling mechanisms in bidirectional communication between the gut and brain. Paracrine signaling, involving neurotransmitters and cytokines, is crucial for transmitting information, while neural signaling, facilitated by the vagus nerve, facilitates rapid communication. The study hypothesizes that external stressors, applied to an organ-chip model, alter gut-brain signaling pathways, altering the gut microbiome's composition and activity, and potentially affecting the gut barrier's integrity, potentially leading to increased permeability and harmful substance translocation into the bloodstream.
