MAIT cells and viruses [PDF]

open access: yesImmunology and Cell Biology, 2018
AbstractMucosal associated invariant T cells (MAIT cells) bear a T cell receptor (TCR) that specifically targets microbially derived metabolites. Functionally, they respond to bacteria and yeasts, which possess the riboflavin pathway, essential for production of such metabolites and which are presented on MR1.

Development and Functions of MAIT Cells.

open access: yesAnnual Review of Immunology
Mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells are evolutionarily conserved T cells that recognize microbial metabolites. They are abundant in humans and conserved during mammalian evolution, which suggests that they have important nonredundant functions ...

Human liver‐derived MAIT cells differ from blood MAIT cells in their metabolism and response to TCR‐independent activation

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Immunology, 2021
Mucosal associated invariant T (MAIT) cells are anti-microbial innate-like T cells that are abundant in blood and liver. MAIT cells express a semi-invariant T-cell receptor (TCR) that recognizes a pyrimidine ligand, derived from microbial riboflavin ...

MAIT Cells in Health and Disease

Annual Review of Immunology, 2020
Mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells have been attracting increasing attention over the last few years as a potent unconventional T cell subset. Three factors largely account for this emerging interest. Firstly, these cells are abundant in humans, both in circulation and especially in some tissues such as the liver.

Polyunsaturated fatty acid-induced metabolic exhaustion and ferroptosis impair the anti-tumour function of MAIT cells in MASLD.

Journal of Hepatology
BACKGROUND & AIMS Mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells constitute a highly abundant innate-like T cell population in the human liver that is critical for immune surveillance of hepatic cancers but often dysfunctional in human hepatocellular ...

Role of MAIT cells in metabolic diseases

Molecular Immunology, 2021
MAIT cells are innate-like T cells that are enriched in mucosal sites and tissues including adipose tissue and liver. They play an important role in immunity against microbial pathogens. Recently, it has been reported that MAIT cells could also be important in metabolic diseases and can be involved in setting up and maintaining chronic inflammation. In

The biology and functional importance of MAIT cells

Nature Immunology, 2019
In recent years, a population of unconventional T cells called 'mucosal-associated invariant T cells' (MAIT cells) has captured the attention of immunologists and clinicians due to their abundance in humans, their involvement in a broad range of infectious and non-infectious diseases and their unusual specificity for microbial riboflavin-derivative ...

MAIT cells in infectious diseases

Current Opinion in Immunology, 2017
In humans, MAIT cells represent the most abundant T cell subset reacting against bacteria. Their frequency in the blood is decreased in a large variety of infectious diseases of either bacterial or viral origin. MAIT cells accumulate at the site of bacterial infection and are protective in experimental infection models.

Mast cells boost anti-tumor potency of MAIT cells via inflammasome-dependent secretion of IL-18

Nature Communications
Mast cells (MC) serve as pivotal sentinels in the regulation of immune responses and inflammation, yet their function in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) remains largely neglected.
