Shared and Distinct Phenotypes and Functions of Human CD161++ Vα7.2+ T Cell Subsets
30 Aug 2017
Abstract excerpt
Human Mucosal Associated Invariant T (MAIT) cells are an important T cell subset which are enriched in tissues and possess potent effector functions. Typically such cells are marked by their expression of Vα7.2-Jα33/Jα20/Jα12 T cell receptor (TCRs), and functionally they are major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I-related protein 1 (MR1)-restricted, responding to bacterially-derived riboflavin synthesis...
