This work was performed by the "Ingeniería Dirigida por Modelos MDE-RG" research group at the University of Oviedo under Contract No. FC-15-GRUPIN14-084 of the research project "Ingeniería Dirigida Por Modelos MDE-RG." The project was funded by the Government of the Principality of Asturias. The work was also supported by the economic mobility grants of the University of Oviedo, which enabled the third author to visit the University of Manchester in 2013.

International audience ; Individuals who are minoritized as a result of race, sexual identity, gender, or socioeconomic status experience a higher prevalence of many diseases. Understanding the biological processes that cause and maintain these socially driven health inequities is essential for addressing them. The gut microbiome is strongly shaped by host environments and affects host metabolic, immune, and neuroendocrine functions, making it an important pathway by which differences in experiences caused by social, political, and economic forces could contribute to health inequities. Nevertheless, few studies have directly integrated the gut microbiome into investigations of health inequities. Here, we argue that accounting for host–gut microbe interactions will improve understanding and management of health inequities, and that health policy must begin to consider the microbiome as an important pathway linking environments to population health.
