Chemokines control the release of innate immune cells from the bone marrow during homeostasis as well as in response to infection and inflammation. Theyalso recruit innate immune effectors out of the circulation and into the tissue where, in collaboration with other chemoattractants, they guide these cells to the very sites of tissue injury. Chemokine function is also critical for the positioning of innate immune sentinels in peripheral tissue and then, following innate immune activation, guiding these activated cells to the draining lymph node to initiate and imprint an adaptive immune response. In this review, we will highlight recent advances in understanding how chemokine function regulates the movement and positioning of innate immune cells at homeostasis and in response to acute inflammation, and then we will review how chemokine-mediated innate immune cell trafficking plays an essential role in linking the innate and adaptive immune responses. hemokines are chemotactic cytokines that with emphasis placed on its role in the innate Ccontrol cell migration and cell positioning immune system. throughout development, homeostasis, and in- flammation.

Crome1,2 and Pamela S. Ohashi2,3,4* Abstract Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) are increasingly being recognized for their ability to impact both innate and adaptive immune cells in diverse contexts. ILCs have been observed in all secondary lymphoid tissues, in addition to being tissue-resident innate lymphocytes. In these locations, ILCs are poised to interact with various immune cells at different stages of an immune response. While the heterogeneity and plasticity of ILCs has complicated their study, their association with immune dysregulation in a wide range of pathologies highlights their importance to human health and disease. Notably, in addition to promoting inflammatory immune responses, populations of ILCs have been shown to inhibit immune responses through a variety of mechanisms. The reports of ILC-mediated regulation of immune responses have differed in terms of the phenotype of the regulatory ILC populations, and their mechanism of action. Yet the ability to modulate immune responses appears to be an important function of ILCs. As our understanding of this family of lymphocytes evolves, delineating the factors that dictate whether ILCs orchestrate inflammatory immune responses or suppresses these responses will be important for understanding various disease mechanisms. Here we focus on recent reports that examine how ILCs regulate immunity in different contexts.

DOMAICA1 1Laboratorio de Fisiopatología de la Inmunidad Innata, Instituto de Biología y Medicina Experimental (IBYME-CONICET), 2Departamento de Química Biológica, Facultad de Ciencias Exactas y Naturales, Universidad de Buenos Aires, Argentina Abstract In recent times, our understanding of the role of the immune system in different physiopathological situations has increased markedly. A new set of cells, generically known as innate lymphoid cells (ILC), has been discovered in the lymphoid compartment. Five ILC subsets can be recognized according to phe- notypic and functional similarities with different subpopulations of T lymphocytes. Unlike T and B lymphocytes, ILC do not express antigen receptors nor undergo selection and clonal expansion upon activation. Instead, they respond rapidly to cytokines and danger signals in infected or inflamed tissues, producing cytokines that direct the immune response toward a type suitable for controlling the initial insult. In addition, ILC establish a crosstalk with other cells of the microenvironment that contributes to the maintenance and restoration of tissue homeo- stasis. Although many evidences on ILC were obtained from animal models, solid data confirm their existence in humans and their role in various inflammatory disorders. In this article, we address new knowledge on ILC, particularly on their role in the homeostasis of the immune system and in various inflammatory pathologies, in order to present new actors regulating immunity and immunopathology and affecting human health.

  • NK Cells and Type 1 Innate Lymphoid Cells: Partners in Host Defense
    REVIEW INNATE LYMPHO I D C E L L S NK cells and type 1 innate lymphoid cells: partners in host defense Hergen Spits1,2, Jochem H Bernink1,2 & Lewis Lanier3 Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) are effectors and regulators of innate immunity and tissue modeling and repair. Researchers have identified subsets of ILCs with differing functional activities, capacities to produce cytokines and transcription factors required for development and function. Natural killer (NK) cells represent the prototypical member of the ILC family. Together with ILC1s, NK cells constitute group 1 ILCs, which are characterized by their capacity to produce interferon-g and their functional dependence on the transcription factor T-bet. NK cells and ILC1s are developmentally distinct but share so many features that they are difficult to distinguish, particularly under conditions of infection and inflammation.

  • Innate Lymphoid Cell Memory
    Cellular & Molecular Immunology www.nature.com/cmi REVIEW ARTICLE Innate lymphoid cell memory Xianwei Wang1,2, Hui Peng1,2 and Zhigang Tian1,2 Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs), including natural killer (NK) cells, ILC1s, ILC2s, ILC3s, and lymphoid tissue inducer (LTi) cells, comprise the first line of innate immune defense against pathogens and tumors. Over the past decade, accumulating evidence has demonstrated immunological memory in ILC subsets: for example, NK cells recall haptens, viruses, and cytokines; ILC1s recall haptens; and ILC2s recall cytokines. Although the development and functions of ILCs mirror those of T-cell subsets, ILC and T-cell memory exhibit both common characteristics and specific properties. Encouragingly, ILC memory has been found to confer benefits in long-term tumor control and vaccination, providing insight for novel memory ILC-based tumor immunotherapy and vaccine-development strategies. In this review, we discuss the evidence supporting ILC memory and present a comprehensive framework of the ILC memory system. Cellular & Molecular Immunology (2019) 16:423–429; https://doi.org/10.1038/s41423-019-0212-6 INTRODUCTION ILC1s20 and ILC2s.21 These new findings have greatly contributed Members of the innate lymphoid cell (ILC) family, composed of to our understanding of immunological memory and have natural killer (NK) cells, ILC1s, ILC2s, ILC3s, and lymphoid tissue extended the concept of NK cell memory to ILC memory. In this inducer (LTi) cells, functionally mirror their adaptive counterparts, review, we summarize the advances and present a comprehensive CD8+ and CD4+ T-cell subsets.1–4 ILCs provide the first line of host framework of ILC memory. immune defense against pathogenic infection and tumor develop- ment.
