Identification and phenotype of MAIT cells in cattle and their response to bacterial infections
2020-11-10
Abstract excerpt
Mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells are a population of innate-like T cells that utilise a semi-invariant T cell receptor (TCR) α chain and are restricted by the highly conserved antigen presenting molecule MR1. MR1 presents microbial riboflavin biosynthesis derived metabolites produced by bacteria and fungi. Consistent with their ability to sense ligands derived from bacterial sources, MAIT cells have bee...
