Abstrakt: Purpose of Review: Recognition of the importance of innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) in the immune mechanisms of food allergy has grown in recent years. This review summarizes recent findings of ILCs in immunoglobulin E (IgE)-mediated food allergy. New research on ILCs in the context of the microbiome and other atopic diseases are also considered with respect to how they can inform understanding of the role of ILCs in food allergy.
Recent Findings: ILCs can mediate allergic and tolerogenic responses through multiple pathways. A novel subset of interleukin (IL)-10 producing ILC2s are associated with tolerance following immunotherapy to grass pollen, house dust mite allergy and lipid transfer protein allergy. ILC2s can drive food allergen-specific T cell responses in an antigen-specific manner. A memory subset of ILC2s has been identified through studies of other atopic diseases and is associated with effectiveness of response to therapy.
Summary: The role of ILCs in food allergy and oral tolerance is relatively understudied compared to other diseases. ILCs can modulate immune responses through several mechanisms, and it is likely that these are of importance in the context of food allergy. Better understanding of theses pathways may help to answer fundamental questions regarding the development of food allergy and lead to novel therapeutic targets and treatment.
