- Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) constitute a heterogeneous family of effector lymphocytes of the innate immune system that mediate lymphoid organogenesis, tissue repair, immunity and inflammation. The initial view that ILCs exert their protective functions solely during the innate phase of an immune response has been recently challenged by evidence indicating that ILCs shape adaptive immunity by establishing both contactdependent and contact-independent interactions with multiple hematopoietic and nonhematopoietic cells, including B cells. Some of these interactions enhance antibody responses both systemically and at mucosal sites of entry.
