Innate lymphocytes are integral components of the cellular immune system that can coordinate host defense against a multitude challenges and trigger immunopathology when dysregulated. Natural killer (NK) cells innate lymphoid (ILCs) effectors postulated to functionally mirror conventional cytotoxic T helper cells, respectively. Here, we showed cytolytic molecule granzyme C was expressed in with phenotype type 1 ILCs (ILC1s) mouse liver salivary gland. Cell fate-mapping transfer studies revealed C-expressing could be derived from ILC progenitors did not interconvert NK ILC2s, or ILC3s. Granzyme defined maturation state ILC1s. These ILC1s required transcription factors T-bet and, lesser extent, Eomes support transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) signaling for their maintenance In transgenic breast cancer model, depleting caused accelerated tumor growth. gained expression following interleukin-15 (IL-15) stimulation, which enabled perforin-mediated cytotoxicity. Constitutive activation STAT5, factor regulated by IL-15, triggered lethal perforin-dependent autoimmunity neonatal mice. Thus, marks effector ILC1s, broadening function beyond "helper-like" lymphocytes.

Type I and type II interferons (IFN) are central to both combating virus infection modulating the antiviral immune response. Indeed, an absence of either receptor for IFNs or IFN-y have resulted in increased susceptibility infection, including replication reduced survival. However, emerging area research has shown that there is a dual nature these cytokines. Recent evidence demonstrated immunoregulatory functions during responses. In this review, we address present immunomodulatory critical not only limit initiate appropriate response, but also negatively regulate response minimize tissue damage. Both activating regulatory properties work concert with each other create balanced combats while minimizing collateral damage

The immune system plays a critical role in protecting hosts from the invasion of organisms. CD4 T cells, as key component system, are central orchestrating adaptive responses. After decades investigation, five major helper cell (Th) subsets have been identified: Th1, Th2, Th17, Treg (T regulatory), and Tfh (follicular helper) cells. Th1 defined by expression lineage cytokine interferon (IFN)-γ master transcription factor T-bet, participate type 1 responses to intracellular pathogens such mycobacterial species viruses; Th2 cytokines interleukin (IL)-4/IL-5/IL-13 GAΤA3, 2 larger extracellular helminths; Th17 IL-17/IL-22 RORγt, 3 including some bacteria fungi; producing IL-21 expressing Bcl6, help B cells produce corresponding antibodies; whereas Foxp3-expressing unlike Th1/Th2/Th17/Tfh exerting their effector functions, regulate maintain homeostasis prevent immunopathology. Interestingly, innate lymphoid (ILCs) found mimic functions three (Th1, Th17) thus can also be divided into subsets: ILC1s, ILC2s, ILC3s. In this review, we will discuss differentiation each subset context ILCs human diseases associated with dysregulation these lymphocyte particularly caused monogenic mutations.

Interferon-gamma (IFNG) is a pleiotropic cytokine that modulates both innate and adaptive immune networks; it the most potent activator of macrophages signature activated T lymphocytes. Though IFNG now appreciated to have multitude roles in modulation broad-spectrum pathogen defense, was originally discovered, named, as secretory factor interferes with viral replication. In contrast prototypical type I interferons produced by any cells upon infection, only specific subsets can produce infection or stimulation antigen mitogen. Still, virtually all respond types interferons. This makes versatile anti-microbial also gives unique position antiviral defense system. The goal this review highlight direct mechanisms IFNG, thereby clarifying its function effective control infections.
