They then measured changes in tuft cells and various signals. "We were the first to study tuft cell biology across day-night cycles," said Zheng Kuang, assistant professor of biological sciences ...

Tuft cells constitutively express IL-25 to sustain ILC2 homeostasis in the intestine, but mechanisms driving IL-25 secretion have been unclear. Here, Feng et al. find that tuft cells express IL ...
