Abstract
These findings identify nuocytes as a novel cell type in allergic lung inflammation and an innate source of IL-13 that can directly induce AHR in the absence of IL-13-producing CD4+ T cells. These data highlight nuocytes as an important new consideration in the development of future allergic asthma therapy.
