Innate lymphoid cells type 2 and CD8+ T cells are perturbed in overweight and obese individuals with asthma.

The prevalence of asthma and obesity is increasing globally and represents a major challenge. We assessed the ILC compartment alongside T cells in 87 individuals grouped as overweight/obese asthma ( I n i = 20), normal weight asthma ( I n i = 21), overweight/obese non-asthma ( I n i = 25), and normal weight non-asthma ( I n i = 21) (Data S2 [Ethical Permit: 2020-02922]; Tables SI and SII) ([4]).
