Abstract

---

We will first of all start with a histolocal reminder of the membrane of the G.I.T and its constituents. Then we will discuss the G.I.T as an immunological barrier i.e., the G.A.L.T. We will then pass onto the consequences of civilization diseases (Intolerance, allergies, M.I.C). Next we will talk about the immune response, the differentiation of lymphocytes, the secretion of IgA, autoimmune diseases, the interest of prebiotics and probiotics, the relationship which exists between the probiotics and the immunity. And for the conclusion: Capital importance of the proper functioning of the G.I.T for the wellbeing of our patients. References: 1. Mowat AM, Nature Reviews Immunology 2003 2.
