Have Cytokines, Will Travel

Immunity. 2018 Feb 20;48(2):200-201. doi: 10.1016/j.immuni.2018.02.007.

Abstract

In many contexts, innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) are primarily tissue resident. By contrast, in a recent issue of Science, Huang et al. (2018) show that inflammatory type 2 ILCs migrate from the intestine to the lungs and that this movement is guided by sphingosine-1-phosphate receptors.
