Inhibitor of binding or differentiation 2 (Id2), a member of helix-loop-helix (HLH) transcriptional factors, is recently reported as an important regulator of the development or differentiation of immune cells. It has been demonstrated that Id2 plays a critical role in the early lymphopoiesis. However, it has been discovered recently that Id2 displays new functions in different immune cells. In the adaptive immune cells, Id2 is required for determining T-cell subsets and B cells. In addition, Id2 is also involved in the development of innate immune cells, including dendritic cells (DCs), natural killer (NK) cells, and other innate lymphoid cells (ILCs). Here, we review the current reports about the role of Id2 in the development or differentiation of main immune cells.
