Tuft cells are specialized taste-chemosensory cells that detect the presence of intestinal parasites and orchestrate type 2 immunity. In this issue of Immunity, McGinty et al. discover that parasitic worms, but not commensal protists, stimulate tuft cells to release cysteinyl leukotrienes to amplify anti-helminth immunity in the small intestine.

随之而来的一项塔夫特法案：白三烯在抗蠕虫免疫方面占据了上风。

簇状细胞是专门的味觉化学感应细胞，可检测肠内寄生虫的存在并协调2型免疫。在本期《免疫》中，McGinty等人。发现寄生虫而不是共生生物会刺激簇状细胞释放半胱氨酸白三烯，从而增强小肠的抗蠕虫免疫力。
