The maintenance of a homeostatic environment in intestinal the lumen which harbors pathogenic and non-pathogenic microbiota, is regulated by host cells-derived secretory molecules. Interaction between intestinal epithelial cells and immune cells is necessary for the maintenance of host-microbe symbiosis mediated by secretory molecules. Here, we describe how host cell-derived molecules shape the composition of intestinal microbiota based on the latest evidence.
