Developmental programming of natural killer and innate lymphoid cells.
In recent years we have witnessed a blooming interest in innate lymphoid cell (ILC) biology thanks to the discovery of novel lineages of ILC that are phenotypically and functionally distinct from NK cells. While the importance of these novel ILC subsets as essential functional components of the early immune responses are now clearly established, many questions remain as to how early ILC develop...
متن کاملGroup 2 innate lymphoid cells license dendritic cells to potentiate memory T helper 2 cell responses
Rapid memory CD4+ T helper 2 (TH2) cell activation during allergic inflammation requires their recruitment into the affected tissue. Here we demonstrate that group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2) play a critical role in memory TH2 cell responses, with targeted ILC2 depletion profoundly impairing TH2 cell localization to the lungs and skin of sensitized mice after allergen re-challenge. ILC2-deri...
متن کاملType 1 Innate Lymphoid Cell Biology: Lessons Learnt from Natural Killer Cells
Group 1 innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) comprise the natural killer (NK) cells and ILC1s that reside within peripheral tissues. Several different ILC1 subsets have recently been characterized; however, no unique markers have been identified that uniquely define these subsets. Whether ILC1s and NK cells are in fact distinct lineages, or alternately exhibit transitional molecular programs that allow...
متن کاملInnate lymphoid cells
Purpose of review: The purpose of this article is to review recent advances in our understanding of innate lymphoid cell function and to speculate on how these cells may become activated and influence the immune response to allogeneic tissues and cells following transplantation. Recent findings: Innate lymphoid cells encompass several novel cell types whose wide ranging roles in the immune syst...
متن کاملHuman innate lymphoid cells.
Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) are lymphoid cells that do not express rearranged receptors and have important effector and regulatory functions in innate immunity and tissue remodeling. ILCs are categorized into 3 groups based on their distinct patterns of cytokine production and the requirement of particular transcription factors for their development and function. Group 1 ILCs (ILC1s) produce i...
