    AnnotationIn the present chapter, we provide a comprehensive review of the potential role of gut microbiota in the pathogenesis of anorexia nervosa (AN) and discuss the potential of modifying the gut microbiota as an adjunct to standard nutritional treatment protocols for AN patients. Recently, the gut microbiota has been increasingly recognized as an important factor contributing to various diseases, including psychiatric disorders. Gut microbiota communicates with the central nervous system on the gut-brain axis and potentially affects mental health. In patients with AN, the microbial composition and related microbial products differ from healthy individuals. The microbiota in the gastrointestinal tract is a very important antigenic source for the host immune system. Evidence is now emerging for an association between specific psychiatric disorders and altered immune reactions, some of which have been described in patients with AN. Some immune components have the potential to regulate brain functions and may underlie the pathology of anorexia nervosa.
