Abstract

Neuronal and immune systems coordinately orchestrate responses at mucosal barriers. Nagashima et al. applied scRNA-seq technology to track type 2 immune responses in worm infection, identifying neuropeptide CGRP as a factor that modulates inflammation. The study suggests that CGRP may be a useful target in type 2 inflammation.
