Natural killers or ILC1s? That is the question

Résumé

Group 1 innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) comprise the natural killer (NK) cells and ILC1s. Both cells co-exist in peripheral tissues and despite effort to characterize the molecular identity and developmental pathways of ILC1s, their relationship with NK cells remains elusive. ILC1s and NK cells share many common features and analysis of ILC1s in tissues revealed a great heterogeneity and distinct transcriptional requirement of each ILC1 subsets complexifying the organization of this group. Here, we discuss whether ILC1 and NK cells can be considered as distinct lineages based on their origin, location, phenotype or transcriptional regulation. Discrimination of NK cells and ILC1s represent an important challenge to unravel the individual functions of these cells during infection and tumor immunosurveillance.
