Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Using transgenic mice for in vivo live imaging in which intestinal tuft cells detecting helminths are fluorescent-labeled, we detected responses to succinic acid, salicin, and nematode excretory/secretory product in tuft cells or their surrounding cells. When succinic acid was administered, the number of type 2 innate lymphoid cells present in intestinal lamina propria was larger in tuft cell-localized Gprc5c knockout mice than in wild-type mice, suggesting that Gprc5c may suppress type 2 innate immune response during inflammation.
