The present review compiles studies suggesting that microbiota is homogenized between different individuals through social interactions, and that, in turn, it may be differentiated as a consequence of social isolation or social exclusion.

La posibilidad de que la microbiota sea un mediador de la conducta social y las implicaciones de tal relación, son un campo reciente de investigación que apenas comienza a atraer la atención de la comunidad científica. Con base en estudios empíricos particulares, la presente revisión sugiere que la microbiota se homogeniza entre distintos individuos debido al contacto social, así como la posibilidad de que ésta se diferencie a consecuencia del aislamiento o la exclusión social. Por lo tanto, sugiere su utilidad como un índice novedoso de la dinámica de inclusión y exclusión social, útil en la evaluación de la pertenencia de sujetos a grupos específicos. En este sentido, consideramos que esta propuesta debería motivar más estudios empíricos relevantes enfocados en la relación entre la homogenización de la microbiota, la inclusión y exclusión social, con utilidad en diversos campos de investigación.
