Antibody opsonization enhances MAIT cell responsiveness to bacteria via a TNF-dependent mechanism

Abstract:

Mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells are an abundant human T cell subset with anti-microbial properties. They can respond to bacteria presented via antigen-presenting cells (APCs) such as macrophages, which present bacterially derived ligands from the riboflavin synthesis pathway on MR1. Moreover, MAIT cells are also highly responsive to cytokines which enhance and even substitute for TCR-mediated signaling. The mechanisms leading to an efficient presentation of bacteria to MAIT cells ...
