Abstract

Castro-Dopico et al. identify GM-CSF as a major upstream regulator of intestinal inflammatory macrophages, with ILC-derived GM-CSF polarizing macrophages toward a glycolytic, anti-microbial phenotype while suppressing wound-healing, pro-fibrotic activity. GM-CSF initiates further ILC-macrophage crosstalk, amplifying ILC3 activation and type 17 immunity.
