Activation of Type 3 Innate Lymphoid Cells and Interleukin 22 Secretion in the Lungs During Streptococcus pneumoniae Infection

Abstract: Mucosal sites are continuously exposed to pathogenic microorganisms and are therefore equipped to control respiratory infections. Type 3 innate lymphoid cells (ILC3) are key players in antimicrobial defense in intestinal mucosa, through interleukin 17 and interleukin 22 (IL-22) production. The present study aimed at analyzing the distribution and function of ILC3 in the respiratory tract. We first observed that lung mucosa harbors a discrete population of ILC3 expressing CD127, CD90, CCR6, and the transcriptio… Show more

“…We observed at least two populations of cells capable of producing IL-22 in the lung after challenge with MRSA. The first population comprised cells positive for IL-22, CD3, and ROR␥t, likely representing Th17 or Th22 cells (43), while the second group was negative for CD3 but positive for IL-22 and ROR␥t, possibly representing ILC3s (44).…”

“…IL-17A is a potent pro-inflammatory and immunostimulatory cytokine produced by T helper 17 lymphocytes, type 3 innate lymphoid cells and bovine γδ-T cells [28,29]. IL-17 is important for defence of the respiratory tract against bacterial pathogens including Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Legionella pneumophila infections in mice [30][31][32].…”

“…20,50 En ratones RAG2−/− (que carecen de linfocitos T y B) infectados por vía oral con Citrobacter rodentium hubo aumento de ILC que producen IL-22 en el intestino; la eliminación de estas ILC con un anticuerpo monoclonal aceleró la muerte de dichos ratones.producción de IL-22 y la protección contra una dosis letal de esta bacteria. 59 En ratones infectados por vía oral con Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium, la mayor parte de las células intestinales que produjeron IFNγ fueron ILC; esta citocina se requiere para secretar el moco que protege el epitelio intestinal durante la infección y participa en la patogénesis de la enterocolitis. 60 Las ILC-3 CCR6+ (LTi-like) se encuentran en el intestino; a través de sus moléculas del MHC-II capturan, procesan y presentan antígenos de la microbiota comensal a los linfocitos T. Estas ILC-3, a diferencia de las ILC-2, carecen de moléculas coestimuladoras, por lo que causan la muerte de los linfocitos T activados con TCR específicos para antígenos de la microbiota.…”
