IL-22-producing RORγt-dependent innate lymphoid cells play a novel protective role in murine acute hepatitis.
Retinoid-related orphan receptor (ROR) γt is known to be related to the development and function of various immunological compartments in the liver, such as Th17 cells, natural killer T (NKT) cells, and innate lymphoid cells (ILCs). We evaluated the roles of RORγt-expressing cells in mouse acute hep...
