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.

A Unified Machine Learning Model for Relapse Prediction in Clinical Stage I Testicular Cancer

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Approximately one‐fourth of patients with clinical stage I testicular cancer relapse. For decades, risk stratification has been based on different tumor characteristics for seminomas and non‐seminomas. Previous studies primarily used Cox proportional‐hazards models and included only a limited number of variables.

The role of mucosal-associated invariant T cells in visceral leishmaniasis

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
Mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells are restricted by MR1 and are known to protect against bacterial and viral infections. Our understanding of the role of MAIT cells in parasitic infections, such as visceral leishmaniasis (VL) caused by ...

Infection control in the brain and the eye

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract The Central Nervous System (CNS), comprising the brain and the eye, is considered to have a ‘privileged’ mechanism for dealing with immunological challenge (immune privilege, IP). CNS IP has been revealed through experiments using foreign protein antigens and cell and tissue alloantigens (grafts), but evidence for a role for IP in modulating ...

Mucosal-associated invariant T cells recognize a tumor-derived metabolite in the DNA synthesis pathway

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
Mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells recognize metabolite-derived ligands, but the identity of such ligands in the context of cancer remains poorly defined.

Current insights in mouse iNKT and MAIT cell development using single cell transcriptomics data

open access: yesSeminars in Immunology, 2022
Innate T (Tinn) cells are a collection of T cells with important regulatory functions that have a crucial role in immunity towards tumors, bacteria, viruses, and in cell-mediated autoimmunity.

T Cell Heterogeneity Shaped by Alternative Splicing Predicts Prognosis in Hepatocellular Carcinoma

open access: yesCancer Science, EarlyView.
T cell‐specific alternative splicing events shape T cell heterogeneity in HCC. Single‐cell analysis identified two splicing‐defined T cell subpopulations with distinct functional profiles. Subpopulation‐associated splicing events were used to construct a prognostic model predicting patient survival.

MAIT Cells in Liver Disease

open access: yesCells
Mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells are abundant innate-like T lymphocytes in the human liver which can provide antimicrobial defense, amplify inflammatory processes and mediate tissue repair and fibrosis depending on microenvironmental cues.

Altered CD161 bright CD8+ mucosal associated invariant T (MAIT)-like cell dynamics and increased differentiation states among juvenile type 1 diabetics.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Type 1A diabetes (T1D) is believed to be caused by immune-mediated destruction of β-cells, but the immunological basis for T1D remains controversial. Microbial diversity promotes the maturation and activation of certain immune subsets, including CD161 ...
