Curious about how CD4+ T cells influence behaviour? In this News & Views, we discuss the new findings of Yoshida et al.:

T cells fast-track gut signals to the brain - Nature Immunology

CD4+ T cells migrate from the gut and adipose tissue to the brain parenchyma, in mouse and human, transmitting information on diet and microbiome to the subfornical organ, altering feeding behavior.
