Factors Influencing Functional Heterogeneity in Human Mucosa-Associated Invariant T Cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Mucosa-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells are unconventional innate-like T cells that recognize microbial riboflavin metabolites presented by the monomorphic MHC class I-related (MR1) molecule.

Role of mucosal-associated invariant T cells dynamics in pathogenesis of Sjögren syndrome

open access: yesScientific Reports
Sjögren syndrome (SS) is an autoimmune disease characterized by chronic inflammatory infiltrates in the salivary and lacrimal glands. Mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells are a subset of innate-like T-cells, predominantly found in mucosal tissues ...

Arming of MAIT Cell Cytolytic Antimicrobial Activity Is Induced by IL-7 and Defective in HIV-1 Infection.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2015
Mucosa-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells represent a large innate-like evolutionarily conserved antimicrobial T-cell subset in humans. MAIT cells recognize microbial riboflavin metabolites from a range of microbes presented by MR1 molecules. MAIT cells

MAIT cell responses to Staphylococcus aureus and sensitivity to HlgAB toxin are modulated by activation and tissue-dependent virulence effects

open access: yesmBio
Mucosa-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells are unconventional T cells with innate-like rapid antimicrobial effector functions and serve as resident sentinels at mucosal and non-mucosal barriers.

Functions of mucosal associated invariant T cells in eye diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
Mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells are a unique subset of T cells that recognizes metabolites derived from the vitamin B2 biosynthetic pathway. Since the identification of cognate antigens for MAIT cells, knowledge of the functions of MAIT cells

Potential of MAIT cells to modulate asthma

open access: yesAllergology International
Despite recent advances in asthma treatments, the search for novel therapies remains necessary because there are still patients with recurrent asthma exacerbations and poor responses to the existing treatments. Since group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2) play a pivotal role in asthma by triggering and exacerbating type 2 inflammation, controlling ILC2s ...

Estrogen Induced Regulation of Mucosal-Associated Invariant T Cells in Asthma

open access: yesJournal of Immunology Research
Asthma affects over 300 million people worldwide, with increasing rates annually. Males have higher asthma prevalence in adolescence, while females exhibit higher rates in adulthood. Reduced mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells are found in severe

MAIT cells: Conserved watchers on the wall

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Medicine
MAIT cells are innate-like T cells residing in barrier tissues such as the lung, skin, and intestine. Both the semi-invariant T cell receptor of MAIT cells and the restricting element MR1 are deeply conserved across mammals, indicating non-redundant functions linked to antigenic specificity.

CXCR6-positive circulating mucosal-associated invariant T cells can identify patients with non-small cell lung cancer responding to anti-PD-1 immunotherapy

open access: yesJournal of Experimental & Clinical Cancer Research
Background Mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells have been reported to regulate tumor immunity. However, the immune characteristics of MAIT cells in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and their correlation with the treatment efficacy of immune ...
