Comment on “ILC1 drive intestinal epithelial and matrix remodeling”

Type 1 Innate lymphoid cells (ILC1) accumulate in the inflamed mucosa of patients with Crohn’s disease (CD) but their role in CD pathogenesis remains poorly known. In a recent issue of Nature materials, Jowett et al. ( Nat. Mat. 2020) used a coculture model with intestinal organoids to show that ILC...

Summary:Type 1 Innate lymphoid cells (ILC1) accumulate in the inflamed mucosa of patients with Crohn’s disease (CD) but their role in CD pathogenesis remains poorly known. In a recent issue of Nature materials, Jowett et al. ( Nat. Mat. 2020) used a coculture model with intestinal organoids to show that ILC1 could promote intestinal epithelial growth and tissue remodeling through an unexpected mechanism that involves the transforming growth factor 1 (TGF-β1) and the metalloproteinase MMP9.
