英文摘要：

The rapid development of nano and biology technologies pave the way to the research of molecular communication within the body area. The article surveys the recent advents of the bacteria-based molecular communication,in which the bacteria conjugation and bacteria paracrine transmission mechanisms are elaborated,and the related experiment and simulation are presented. Accordingly,the body-area nano-network based on bacteria molecular communication is discussed,and the corresponding relay networking technology is presented. Finally,the future open issues and challenges are discussed.
