Interleukin (IL)-22 regulates the homeostasis of intestine epithelium during inflammation. During inflammation, elevated IL-22 promotes the proliferation of TA cells, represses cell differentiation and leads to the self-renewal defect of intestinal stem cells. Later, the level of IL-22 gradually reduces and the homeostasis of intestine epithelium is recovered.
