Unravelling a mechanism of Group 2 innate lymphoid immune cell development - EurekAlert


Group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) of the immune system are involved in allergic diseases. But currently, therapy targeting ILC2s is not available. Now, however, in an interesting study, researchers have identified a novel mechanism of ILC2 development. The researchers used single-cell RNA sequencing to discover regulatory regions in the genome that are associated with ILC2 development. These findings can help develop treatment strategies for allergic diseases.
