Dendritic cells (DC) are important for maintaining immune homeostasis in the gut, but how they promote intestinal inflammation upon bacterial infection is still unclear. Here the authors show that IgA immune complexes induce proinflammatory cytokine production by metabolic reprogramming of otherwise tolerogenic human CD103+ DCs.
