Abstract:
Allergic rhinitis (AR) is the Th2 inflammatory response that atopic individuals exposure to allergens, mediators released by IgE-mediated, and a variety of immunocompetent cells and cytokines involved .Group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2) are a novel population of native lymphocyte, can secrete large amounts of Th2 cytokines to promote the development of allergic diseases after being activated. MiR-155 plays a vital role in the development of the immune system, the differentiation of immune cells, and the maintenance of immune function.Nasal mucosas from the patients with allergic rhinitis show enrichment for ILC2 and miR-155. Highly expressed miR-155 may enhance the level of IL-4 by promoting ILC2 expression, thereby promoting Th2 inflammatory response.This review focuses on the function and meaning of ILC2 and miR-155 in patients with Allergic rhinitis.

Lymphoid Cells and Tissues
Lymphoid cells consist of various types of immune system cells. These include B and T lymphocytes, which are responsible for producing antibodies and killing infected cells, respectively. Dendritic cells act as messengers between the innate and adaptive...

Phagocytes
Phagocytes police the peripheral tissues by removing cellular debris and responding to the invasion of foreign substances or pathogens. Many phagocytes attack and remove microorganisms even before lymphocytes detect them. The human body has two general...
