Summary
IFNG is produced by neutrophils to mount host protection against intracellular pathogens.
IFNG produced by natural killer cells exacerbates Listeria monocytogenes infection by inhibiting granulocyte recruitment.
Ticam2 mediates antibacterial defence during Gram-negative pneumonia by inducing Ifng at the primary site of infection.
Group 2 innate lymphoid cell (ILC2)-intrinsic Il33 signalling and Icosl expression promote regulatory T cell accumulation, whereas the inflammatory cytokine Ifng counter-regulated the effects of Il33, in part through direct effects on ILC2s.
Irf8-Ifng circuit is a novel gastric innate immune mechanism in the host defense against infection with Helicobacter pylori.
