Lipid metabolism and redox balance are linked in type 2 immunity! We found that allergen-induced #ILC2s and #Th2 cells require cysteine-driven glutathione
synthesis to prevent #ferroptosis and
support #lipid metabolism and expansion of type 2 immune cells in #asthma.

#Fibroblasts aren’t just structural cells - they actively talk to immune cells. We found that fibro-derived #C3 maintains #ILC2s, while #IL-13 from ILC2s help maintain fibros in #airwayallergy. A bi-directional #crosstalk driving #allergicresponse!
Cell therapy with IL-10-producing #ILC2s inhibited T cell accumulation within the graft and suppressed inflammatory T cell cytotoxic and inflammatory activity
In a surprise, we find the allogeneic human IL-10-producing #ILC2s are better able to inhibit antigen specific T cell rejection than autologous ILC2s, and that co-transplantation of #ILC2s with human islets enhanced glucose control post-transplant.
🧬 Excited to share our latest study now In Press: In this study led by rising star @sarahcolpitts.bsky.social, we show that IL-10⁺ #ILC2s prevent rejection and improve islet graft survival and function in humanized mouse models. Read more: doi.org/10.1016/j.aj... #Immunology #ImmunoSky #CellTherapy
Excited to see our lab's first paper in @cp-immunity.bsky.social! It's amazing to see the intricate interplay between the enteric neurons and innate lymphocytes! Congrats to everyone involved!

From June '24: The transcription factor Mef2d augments type 2 immune responses during allergic lung inflammation, regulating differentiation of Th2 and ILC2 cells.

This Perspective puts findings about androgens, ILC2s and dendritic cells in the skin into the broader context of differences in immunity between sexes.

From April '24: Differences in the density of immune cells in the skin of male and female mice was linked to male sex hormones called androgens acting on ILC2s.
