Mucosal-Associated Invariant T Cells in Tuberculosis Pleurisy

Journal of Vaccines, Immunology and Immunopathology, 2019
Abstract Mucosal-Associated Invariant T (MAIT) cells, which is a prevalent and unique innate T-cell population that expresses an evolutionarily conserved invariant T cell receptor TCRVα7.2, are present at high frequencies at mucosal tissue sites and have an intrinsic capacity to respond to microbial infections.

Non-myeloablative autologous haematopoietic stem cell transplantation expands regulatory cells and depletes IL-17 producing mucosal-associated invariant T cells in multiple sclerosis [PDF]

, 2017
Autologous haematopoietic stem cell transplantation has been tried as one experimental strategy for the treatment of patients with aggressive multiple sclerosis refractory to other immunotherapies.

Multi‐Enzyme Mimetic Molybdenum Nitride Nanozymes Reshape Subgingival Microenvironment for Synergistic Periodontitis Therapy via ROS Regulation and Microbiome Remodeling

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Periodontitis, a chronic inflammatory disease initiated and sustained by plaque microorganisms and host immune response, remains an intractable oral disease and a leading cause of tooth loss worldwide. Traditional mechanical debridement and adjunctive antibiotic or antiseptic therapy often shows limited efficacy due to the complex anatomical ...

Persistent deficiency of mucosal-associated invariant T cells during dermatomyositis

Rheumatology, 2019
Abstract Objectives Mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells are innate-like lymphocytes that are important for antibacterial immunity and may have regulatory roles. MAIT cells are decreased during SLE. However, their frequencies and phenotype have not been investigated in DM.

Sex‐Specific Regulation of Glycemic Homeostasis by Theabrownin from Pu‐erh Tea

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Pu‐erh tea's key component, theabrownin (TB), lowers blood glucose in a sex‐specific manner. In females, estrogen boosts intestinal MUC2 production, which dramatically enhances TB's ability to inhibit the carbohydrate‐digesting enzyme α‐glucosidase.

Diverse MR1-restricted T cells in mice and humans

Nature Communications, 2019
Mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells express invariant TRAV1/TRAJ33 TCR-α gene segments and detect antigens presented by MR1. Here the authors show that atypical, MR1-restricted MAIT populations that include both Trav1+ and Trav1- cells are found ...

A Microbial Lipid‐ATP Synthase Axis Fuels NK Cell Antitumor Activity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study focuses on the mechanism by which gut microbiota‐derived outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) regulate NK cell antitumor activity. B. intestinalis is identified to decrease extra‐intestinal tumor growth via its OMVs enriched in sphingosine (SP).

Dynamic MAIT cell response with progressively enhanced innateness during acute HIV-1 infection. [PDF]

, 2020
Mucosa-associated invariant T (MAIT) cell loss in chronic HIV-1 infection is a significant insult to antimicrobial immune defenses. Here we investigate the response of MAIT cells during acute HIV-1 infection utilizing the RV217 cohort with paired ...
