IL-15 sustains IL-7R-independent ILC2 and ILC3 development [PDF]
The signals that maintain tissue-resident innate lymphoid cells (ILC) in different microenvironments are incompletely understood. Here we show that IL-7 receptor (IL-7R) is not strictly required for the development of any ILC subset, as residual cells ...

Leukotrienes provide an NFAT-dependent signal that synergizes with IL-33 to activate ILC2s. [PDF]
Group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) and type 2 helper T cells (Th2 cells) are the primary source of interleukin 5 (IL-5) and IL-13 during type 2 (allergic) inflammation in the lung.

Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) represent a novel family of developmentally related hematopoietic effectors with central roles in innate immune responses to infections, lymphoid organogenesis, intestinal homeostasis, and wound healing.1 The prototypes of the ILC family are natural killer cells and lymphoid tissue–inducer cells.

Gastric LTi cells promote lymphoid follicle formation but are limited by IRAK-M and do not alter microbial growth. [PDF]
Lymphoid tissue inducer (LTi) cells are activated by accessory cell IL-23, and promote lymphoid tissue genesis and antibacterial peptide production by the mucosal epithelium.

To respond or not to respond - a personal perspective of intestinal tolerance [PDF]
For many years, the intestine was one of the poor relations of the immunology world, being a realm inhabited mostly by specialists and those interested in unusual phenomena.

Interferon regulatory factor 8-deficiency determines massive neutrophil recruitment but T cell defect in fast growing granulomas during tuberculosis [PDF]
Following Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection, immune cell recruitment in lungs is pivotal in establishing protective immunity through granuloma formation and neogenesis of lymphoid structures (LS).

Developmental Acquisition of Regulomes Underlies Innate Lymphoid Cell Functionality [PDF]
Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) play key roles in host defense, barrier integrity, and homeostasis and mirror adaptive CD4(+) T helper (Th) cell subtypes in both usage of effector molecules and transcription factors.

Shaping Innate Lymphoid Cell Diversity [PDF]
Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) are a key cell type that are enriched at mucosal surfaces and within tissues. Our understanding of these cells is growing rapidly. Paradoxically, these cells play a role in maintaining tissue integrity but they also function as key drivers of allergy and inflammation.

MicroRNA regulation of type 2 innate lymphoid cell homeostasis and function in allergic inflammation. [PDF]
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) exert powerful effects on immunity through coordinate regulation of multiple target genes in a wide variety of cells. Type 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) are tissue sentinel mediators of allergic inflammation.

Epigenomic Views of Innate Lymphoid Cells [PDF]
The discovery of innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) with selective production of cytokines typically attributed to subsets of T helper cells forces immunologists to reassess the mechanisms by which selective effector functions arise. The parallelism between ILCs and T cells extends beyond these two cell types and comprises other innate-like T lymphocytes ...
