Group 3 innate lymphoid cells (ILC3) are an ILC subset that is characterized by the expression of retinoic acid-related orphan nuclear receptor γt (RORγt) and interleukin 22 (IL-22). This review summarizes the role of ILC3 in coordinating innate immunity and adaptive immunity based on current research and elaborate the significance of ILC3 from the perspective of immune system evolution. In addition, based on immune-related functions, we propose a possible time when ILC3 appears in the evolution of the immune system. And then, the research limitations and prospects are discussed.
第3组固有淋巴细胞(ILC3)是固有淋巴细胞的一个亚群,其特征在于视黄酸相关孤儿核受体γt(RORγt)和白细胞介素22(IL-22)的表达。本综述基于当前研究总结了ILC3在协调固有免疫和适应性免疫中的作用,并从免疫系统进化的角度阐述了ILC3的意义。此外,基于免疫相关功能,我们提出了ILC3在免疫系统进化中可能出现的时间。然后,讨论了研究的局限性和前景。
