Interferon-epsilon is a novel regulator of NK cell responses in the uterus. | LitMetric

AI Article Synopsis

  • - The uterus maintains a balance in immune responses, allowing for fetal development while offering protection against infections, particularly focusing on the role of natural killer (NK) cells during infection.
  • - Researchers discovered that IFNε, a type of immune factor present in the uterus, is essential for enhancing NK cell accumulation and activation during Chlamydia infections.
  • - IFNε works by boosting IL-15 production from local immune cells and directly supporting the growth and activation of NK cell progenitors, highlighting its unique role in defending against uterine infections.

Article Abstract

The uterus is a unique mucosal site where immune responses are balanced to be permissive of a fetus, yet protective against infections. Regulation of natural killer (NK) cell responses in the uterus during infection is critical, yet no studies have identified uterine-specific factors that control NK cell responses in this immune-privileged site. We show that the constitutive expression of IFNε in the uterus plays a crucial role in promoting the accumulation, activation, and IFNγ production of NK cells in uterine tissue during Chlamydia infection. Uterine epithelial IFNε primes NK cell responses indirectly by increasing IL-15 production by local immune cells and directly by promoting the accumulation of a pre-pro-like NK cell progenitor population and activation of NK cells in the uterus. These findings demonstrate the unique features of this uterine-specific type I IFN and the mechanisms that underpin its major role in orchestrating innate immune cell protection against uterine infection.
