Mucosal‐associated invariant T cells in autoimmunity, immune‐mediated diseases and airways disease
Mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells are a novel class of innate-like T cells, expressing a semi-invariant T-cell receptor (TCR) and able to recognize small molecules presented on the non-polymorphic MHC-related protein 1. Their intrinsic effector-memory phenotype, enabling secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines, and their relative abundance in humans imply a significant potential to co...
متن کاملMucosal-associated invariant T cells in clinical diseases.
UNLABELLED Mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells are innate-like T cells that recognize microbial infection via vitamin metabolites. The discovery of MAIT cells in the past two decades and the recent discovery of MR1 ligands has opened a new field and potential area for cellular immunotherapy using these unique cells. Their evolutionary conservation in mammals underscore their biological ...
متن کاملHuman Leptin Hormone Affects TNF-α Production in Mucosal-associated Invariant T Cells
Background and Aims: Mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells are striking lymphocyte population in the blood and their importance in immune responses is growing fast. The current study was conducted to evaluate leptin hormone effects on MAIT cell functions. Materials and Methods: Five healthy male donors in ages of 22-30 years were selected and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) ...

Vol. 205 No. 5 1201-1211 www.jem.org/cgi/doi/ 1201 10.1084/jem.20072579 Mucosal-associated invariant T cells (MAITs) are a unique “ innate ” T cell population that expresses an invariant mV 19 TCR in mice and the homologous hV 7.2 in humans ( 1 ). With the exception of preferential localization in the intestine, MAIT cell...
متن کاملB Cells Modulate Mucosal Associated Invariant T Cell Immune Responses
A common finding when measuring T cell immunity to enteric bacterial vaccines in humans is the presence of background responses among individuals before immunization. Yet the nature of these background responses remains largely unknown. Recent findings show the presence in uninfected individuals of mucosal associated invariant T (MAIT) cells that mount broad spectrum immune responses against a ...
