Innate lymphoid cells (ILCS), implicated in tissue repair and maintenance of barrier integrity, are present in large numbers in the intestine which is also innervated by intestinal nervous system (ENS). Reccent research has shown that ILCS- express receptors for IgG O express receptors for neuropeptides and neurotransmitters function through pattern recognition receptors (PRRS) such as TLRS
