Innate lymphoid cells (ILC) are important immune cells for maintaining the gut homeostasis. Here the authors show that c-FLIP, an anti-apoptotic molecule, is important for the development of NKP46+ ILC1, including conventional natural killer (cNK) cells, and ILC3, with cNK being more critical for ameliorating intestinal inflammation.
