Flight of the dragons: a global review of migration in Odonata
ABSTRACT Insects are the most abundant and ecologically important animal migrants. Yet, we know relatively little about the patterns and processes underlying insect migration. Dragonflies (Anisoptera) and damselflies (Zygoptera) comprise the ancient insect order Odonata, whose ancestors were the first organisms to fly on Earth.

MAIT cell deficiency exacerbates neuroinflammation in P301S human tau transgenic mice
Background The role of immune cells in neurodegeneration remains incompletely understood. Accumulation of misfolded tau proteins is a hallmark of neurodegenerative diseases.

Olp-Associated Fibroblasts Stimulate Mait Cells Via Mr1 Pathway
Aim or purpose: This study aimed to examine the level and function of mucosal associated invariant T (MAIT) cells in Oral lichen planus (OLP) tissues and further explore the activation of MAIT cells by OLP-associated myofibroblasts (OLP/MFs).

Advances in γδ T Cells: Cutaneous Biology and Therapeutic Potential for Skin Neoplasms
ABSTRACT γδ T cells represent an increasingly important subset of T lymphocytes in the immune response to cancer and as a platform for novel immunotherapies. The aim of this review is to synthesize recent insights into the biology and advances in therapeutic applications of γδ T cells in cutaneous malignancies, especially melanoma, within a framework ...

Biology of CD1- and MR1-Restricted T Cells
Over the past 15 years, investigators have shown that T lymphocytes can recognize not only peptides in the context of MHC class I and class II molecules but also foreign and self-lipids in association with the nonclassical MHC class I–like molecules, CD1 proteins. In this review, we describe the most recent events in the field, with particular emphasis

Mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells sense riboflavin biosynthetic intermediate antigens with a semi-invariant MR1-restricted T-cell receptor (TCR). Here the authors identify a new MR1-restricted TCR that senses cells infected with S.

In this study, phosphoric acid activation was employed to synthesize nitrogen-doped mesoporous activated carbon (designated as MR1) from Lentinus edodes (shiitake mushroom) residue, while aiming to efficiently remove acetaminophen (APAP), carbamazepine ...

Selective inhibition of MR1-restricted T cell activation by a novel MR1-targeting nanobody
Abstract MR1 is a non-polymorphic, ubiquitously expressed, MHC class I-like antigen-presenting molecule that presents small-molecule metabolites to T cells. Studies have shown that MR1 plays a role in microbial infection, inflammation, and tumor immunity.

Differentiation and fiber type-specific activity of a muscle creatine kinase intronic enhancer
Background Hundreds of genes, including muscle creatine kinase (MCK), are differentially expressed in fast- and slow-twitch muscle fibers, but the fiber type-specific regulatory mechanisms are not well understood. Results Modulatory region 1 (MR1) is a 1-
