Welcome to Pathocast In Review – S2. Ep3 – Can we really improve vaccine responses by giving someone a meal first, or is there a deeper connection between fasting, diet, and immunity? And could ADHD and autism have roots in the gut?
In this episode, we explore how fasting and dietary lipids can change the fitness and function of the immune system, and how interactions between the microbiome and the epigenome in early life may influence a baby’s neurodevelopmental trajectory.
Papers in Review:
1. Postprandial lipid metabolism durably enhances T cell immunity (DOI: 10.1038/s41586-026-10432-8).
2. Epigenome-microbiome interplay in early life associates with infants' neurodevelopmental outcomes (DOI:10.1016j.cpblue.2026.100009)
