ABSTRACT: Allergic rhinitis is a prevalent condition affecting up to 25% of the global population. Whilst common pharmacotherapies such as anti-histamines and corticosteroids can act as temporary symptom reliever, it does not work in 20% of patients. In these patients, allergen immunotherapy is recommended. The role of innate lymphoid cells in allergen specific immunotherapy which can result in the induction of tolerance towards the sensitizing allergen remains unclear. Using a combination of single cell RNA/protein and FACS validation, we provide evidence that the competence of ILC2 to produce IL-10 is dysregulated in allergic individuals and can be restored in patients who receive grass pollen immunotherapy. We also identified that this mechanism is associated with modification in retinol metabolic pathway, cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction and JAK-STAT signalling pathways in the ILCs.
