AbstractIn humans, MAIT cells represent the most abundant T‐cell subset reacting against bacteria. MAIT cells belong to the evolutionarily conserved family of “preset” T cells that includes also NKT cells. Both subsets are selected by double positive thymocytes leading to common features such as PLZF expression.

MAIT Cell Activation by Fungal Pathogens
2019MAIT cells can recognize and respond to several pathogens in a distinct manner. However, many studies are focused on activation by bacteria and by viruses, while reports about molds and MAIT cells are rare. Here, we describe a method to investigate MAIT cell interaction with filamentous fungi from Aspergillus and Mucorales species.

Activation and Function of iNKT and MAIT Cells
2015Over the last two decades, it has been established that peptides are not the only antigens recognized by T lymphocytes. Here, we review information on two T lymphocyte populations that recognize nonpeptide antigens: invariant natural killer T cells (iNKT cells), which respond to glycolipids, and mucosal associated invariant T cells (MAIT cells), which ...

Reprogramming of MAIT Cells to Pluripotency and Redifferentiation
2019Reprogramming differentiated cells into induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) consists in dedifferentiation of the cells into the pluripotent state, i.e., stem cells. Since T cells play a pivotal role in our immune system, T cell reprogramming into iPSCs and subsequent redifferentiation of iPSCs toward the original cells hold a great promise for ...

Basic Techniques for Studies of iNKT Cells and MAIT Cells
2014Invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells and mucosal-associated invariant T cells (MAIT cells) are T cell subsets belonging to innate-like lymphocytes. These innate-like lymphocytes express semi-invariant T cell receptors, but exert diverse functions and thus are involved in various types of immune responses. As iNKT cells and MAIT cells are abundant in

Charting MAIT cell development
Science, 2019T Cells Mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells are a distinct subset of T cells that recognize vitamin B metabolites presented by major histocompatibility complex class I–related protein (MR1). Koay et al. used bulk and single-cell RNA sequencing and flow cytometric analysis to characterize the development of murine and human MAIT cells.
