Thrilled to share our work now published on @cp-immunity.bsky.social . Big thanks to our collaborators. Here we show that short-term High-Fat diet impairs ILC3 functions in producing IL-22 through microbiota-dependent and-independent mechanisms.

Stunning science in a stunning location this week for @mucosal-asi.bsky.social, sharing the latest from our group using iPSCs to investigate immunity in the lung alveolus
Online now: Acute exposure to high-fat diet impairs ILC3 functions and gut homeostasis
Xiong et al. report that short-term, high-fat diet exposure rapidly alters the gut microbial and immune environment, disrupting tissue homeostasis. IL-22 production by group 3 innate lymphoid cells (ILC3s) is impaired, compromising gut barrier integrity. Saturated fatty acids intrinsically suppress ILC3 function, reducing their ability to control gut inflammation.
