IL7RA single nucleotide polymorphisms are associated with the size and function of the MAIT cell population in treated HIV-1 infection [PDF]
MAIT cells are persistently depleted and functionally exhausted in HIV-1-infected patients despite long-term combination antiretroviral therapy (cART). IL-7 treatment supports MAIT cell reconstitution in vivo HIV-1-infected individuals and rescues their ...

Single-Cell Transcriptomic Profiling of MAIT Cells in Patients With COVID-19
BackgroundMucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells are considered to participate of the host immune response against acute severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection; however, single-cell transcriptomic profiling of MAIT ...

MicroRNA-155 Regulates MAIT1 and MAIT17 Cell Differentiation
Mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells are innate-like T cells that develop in the thymus through three maturation stages to acquire effector function and differentiate into MAIT1 (T-bet+) and MAIT17 (RORγt+) subsets.

Disruption of riboflavin biosynthesis in mycobacteria establishes riboflavin pathway intermediates as key precursors of MAIT cell agonists. [PDF]
Mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells exhibit an intrinsic ability to recognize and respond to microbial infections. The semi-invariant antigen recognition receptor of MAIT cells specifically detects the non-polymorphic antigen-presenting molecule,

Distinct MAIT cell phenotypes associated with sepsis clinical outcome in emergency department patients [PDF]
Objectives Rapid diagnosis and intervention are critical for sepsis patient outcomes. However, diagnosis is challenging because of a heterogenic patient group as well as sometimes vague symptoms when the patient presents at the emergency department ...
