abstract = {The peripheral nervous system (PNS) is involved in
nociception and gait. The contribution of PNS-resident
immune cells to these functions is not fully understood. We
identified group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) as a
distinct immune cell population resident in the PNS, with a
unique gene profile facilitating neuron-ILC2 cross-talk.
ILC2-deficient mice display PNS dysfunction
(hypersensitivity and gait anomalies). These functional
deficits are attributed to structural abnormalities in the
sciatic nerves of ILC2-deficient mice. ILC2s communicate
with dorsal root ganglion neurons via the interleukin-13
(IL-13) signaling pathway to maintain nerve structure and
pain thresholds. Loss of the shared IL-4/IL-13 receptor
(IL-4R/IL-13R) in neurons results in a phenotype similar to
ILC2-deficient mice. Intrathecally administered IL-13
rescues hypersensitivity and gait defects in ILC2-deficient
mice, which suggests that this signaling pathway may be
therapeutically important. This work therefore identifies a
function for ILC2s in regulating the nerve structural
integrity and nociceptive functions of the PNS.},
