Abstract

The development of the intestinal immune system is a complex sequence of events that begins in utero under various genetic influences, but continues after birth, being modified by factors such as bacteria, hormones and feeds. This review discusses what is known about the ontogeny of each aspect of the mucosal immune system so as to provide a better understanding of how aberrations in the system might lead to systemic disease.
