abstract = {Enteric nervous system (ENS)-derived neuropeptides modulate
immune cell function, yet our understanding of how
inflammatory cues directly influence enteric neuron
responses during infection is considerably lacking. Here, we
characterized a primary enteric sensory neuron (PSN) subset
producing the neuropeptides neuromedin U (NMU) and
calcitonin gene-related peptide β (CGRPβ) and coexpressing
receptors for the type 2 cytokines interleukin-4 (IL-4) and
IL-13. Type 2 cytokines amplified NMU and CGRPβ expression
in PSNs, in vitro and in vivo, which was abrogated by
PSN-specific Il13ra1 deletion. Deletion of Il13ra1 in PSNs
impaired host defense to the gastrointestinal helminth
Heligmosomoides polygyrus and blunted muscularis immune
responses. Co-administration of NMU23 and CGRPβ rescued
helminth clearance deficits and restored anti-helminth
immunity, highlighting the essential bi-directional
neuro-immune crosstalk regulating intestinal type 2
inflammation.},
