Abstract

Mucosal immunology represents a frontier in understanding the immune system’s intricate responses at mucosal surfaces, such as the gastrointestinal, respiratory, and genitourinary tracts. This research article comprehensively explores the diverse facets of mucosal immunology, ranging from antigen presentation mechanisms to the induction of mucosal tolerance and the development of protective immune responses. A synthesis of current knowledge, research findings, and emerging trends in mucosal immunology provides a foundation for understanding the unique challenges and opportunities presented by mucosal immune interactions.
