Effect of type 2 innate lymphoid cells on T cells and its role in immunity diseases

Type Ⅱ innate lymphoid cell (ILC2), a newly discovered important type of inherent immune cells closely related to T lymphocytes, has a significant regulatory impact on T lymphocytes. Many studies have demonstrated that ILC2 can effectively induce the differentiation of CD4+ T cells to helper T cell (Th)2, thereby contributing to the modulation of host immune homeostasis. In the present paper, we would like to review the update of possible effects of ILC2 on Th2 differentiation and its role in immunity diseases. DOI: 10.11855/j.issn.0577-7402.2021.01.12
