Abstract

The overall contribution of type 2 immunity to cutaneous barrier integrity is poorly understood. In this issue of Immunity, Ricardo-Gonzalez et al. demonstrate the mechanisms by which type 2 cytokines and group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) regulate Demodex mite colonization and maintain skin homeostasis.
