The autophagy gene Atg16l1 differentially regulates Treg and TH2 cells to control intestinal inflammation.
A polymorphism in the autophagy gene Atg16l1 is associated with susceptibility to inflammatory bowel disease (IBD); however, it remains unclear how autophagy contributes to intestinal immune homeostasis. Here, we demonstrate that autophagy is essential for maintenance of balanced CD4+ T cell respons...
