Innate lymphoid cells Jenny Mjösberg Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) are recently described microenvironment. However, they can regulate populations of lymphocytes that lack rearranged tissue homeostasis, inflammation and repair at antigen-specific receptors. The ILC family has been both mucosal and non-mucosal sites, including the divided into three main subsets — ILC1, ILC2 and intestine, lungs and skin, as well as in adipose and ILC3 — and also includes natural killer (NK) cells lymphoid tissues1. ILC effector functions are mainly and lymphoid tissue-inducer (LTi) cells. ILCs are mediated through cytokine secretion and through increasingly appreciated to have important immune direct cell–cell interactions with stromal cells and functions at mucosal surfaces, where they respond other immune cells. This Poster summarizes some of to signals they receive from other cells in the tissue the key features of ILCs in homeostasis and disease.

ILCs originate from a Keratinocyte NFIL3 IL-7 EILP common lymphoid progenitor (CLP), NKP CHILP RORγt, which develops into either a common PLZF RUNX3 helper innate lymphoid progenitor 2 Basophil (CHILP) under the influence of E-cadherin Keratinocyte 3 Fibrosis IL-6, ?

The subsequent expression of switch ILC3 IL-17 Notch, ROR TOX IL-25, IL-2 ILC2P α RORγt by the CHILP leads to LTi cell Homeostatic IL-33, TSLP suppression of T 2 IL-1β, RUNX3, differentiation via the LTi cell precursor H BCL-11B, ILC2 function ILC2 cell IL-23 T-bet (LTiP), whereas PLZF expression marks Periphery GFI1, TCF1 PGD the development of the ILC progenitor 2 Neutrophil IL-4, GM-CSF NCR+ NCR– LTi Mast cell NCR– NK iILC1 ILC1 ILC2 exILC3 (ILCP) which, under the influence of IL-5 IL-13 DC cell ILC3 ILC3 cell T-bet, GATA3 or RORγt, gives rise to the M1 ILC3 5 Activating IL-12, IL-12, IL-12, IL-2, IL-25, IL-2, IL-1β, IL-1β, IL-1β, ILC1, ILC2 or ILC3 subsets, respectively . Eosinophilia M2 IL-2, IL-2, IL-2, NCR+ ILC3s are characterized by IL-22 factors IL-15, IL-15 IL-18 IL-33, PGD2, IL-12, IL-18 TL1, TSLP IL-18 IL-6, IL-6, IL-23 production, whereas NCR– ILC3 produce IL-23 IL-23 IL-17.

ILC2s in type 2 inflammation in the skin, lungs and intestine . ILC2 activation is triggered by IL-25, IL-33, TSLP and PGD2 produced by activated epithelial cells or immune cells in response to helminth infections or allergen exposure. The effector functions of ILC2s are Lung largely mediated by IL-4, IL-5, IL-9 and IL-13 and promote goblet cell The yin and yang of ILC3s Homeostasis and Airway hyperresponsiveness Obesity-induced airway hyperplasia, mucus production, eosinophilia, IgE isotype switching tissue repair and asthma hyperresponsiveness and fibrosis1.

Noteworthy, neutralization of IL-17 in this DLL1 model, or in clinical trials, does not ameliorate disease, pointing towards a crucial role for ILC3-derived IFNγ in IBD. In mice, intestinal environmental CD30L APRIL cues induce T-bet expression in RORγt+NCR+ ILC3s, which is crucial for defence against Salmonella infection22. However, this causes collateral T cell memory CD30 OX40L BAFF maintenance damage that presents as enterocolitis. Paralleling these observations, human Crohn's disease is associated with an accumulation of IFNγ-producing OX40 + ILC1s23. ILC1s can be derived from ILC3s under the influence of IL-12, whereas IL-23 and retinoic acid exposure lead to ILC3 re-differentiation24. CD4 Neutrophil T cell GM-CSF Hence, a finely tuned balance of ILC1s and ILC3s ensures tissue integrity while maintaining immune defence in the intestine.
