Analysis of lipid uptake, storage, and fatty acid oxidation by group 2 innate lymphoid cells.

ABSTRACT: Group 2 Innate Lymphoid Cells (ILC2) are critical drivers of both innate and adaptive type 2 immune responses, known to orchestrate processes involved in tissue restoration and wound healing. In addition, ILC2 have been implicated in chronic inflammatory barrier disorders in type 2 immunopathologies such as allergic rhinitis and asthma. ILC2 in the context of allergen-driven airway inflammation have recently been shown to influence local and systemic metabolism, as well as being rich in lipid-storing organelles called lipid droplets. However, mechanisms of ILC2 lipid anabolism and catabolism remain largely unknown and the impact of these metabolic processes in regulating ILC2 phenotypes and effector functions has not been extensively characterized. ILC2 phenotypes and effector functions ar
