IL-17A signaling promotes epithelization by shaping wound epithelial cell metabolism. (Top) The scheme illustrates cellular networks involved in wound healing progression. Upon injury, immune cells, including neutrophils, macrophages, and lymphocytes, initiate an inflammatory response, which orchestrates wound healing progression. Fibroblasts become myofibroblasts, contributing to granulation formation. The activated keratinocytes at the wound edge migrate over the freshly formed granulation, re-epithelizing and restoring skin barrier function. Konieczny and colleagues report that RORγt + γδ T-cell-derived IL-17A regulates wound epithelization. (Bottom) RORγt + γδ T-cell-derived IL-17A signaling is required for the glycolytic metabolism and migration of wound epithelial tongue cells. IL-17A binds to its receptor IL-17-RC and induces HIF1α expression through ERK/AKT activated mTOR signaling. IL-17A-HIF1α signaling axis-mediated glycolytic metabolism is essential for the migratory activity of wound keratinocytes, thereby regulating wound epithelization
