摘要

Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) are a unique category of immune cell that lack antigen-specific receptors yet possess the capacity to detect signals from the surrounding tissue. The majority of ILCs reside in the lymphoid and mucosal tissues, maintaining close associations with the microbiota. Beyond the contributions of accessory cells and adaptive immune cells, accumulating studies demonstrate that microbial metabolites serve a crucial role in mediating the relationship between ILCs and the microbiota. In this review, we highlight and summarize the roles of microbial metabolites from different sources in modulating ILC subsets, proposing these metabolites as potential therapeutic mechanisms in ILC-mediated diseases.
