Human MAIT cells are xenobiotic-resistant, tissue-targeted, CD161hi IL-17-secreting T cells.
Mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells are very abundant in humans and have antimicrobial specificity, but their functions remain unclear. MAIT cells are CD161(hi)IL-18Rα(+) and either… Expand

Antimicrobial activity of mucosal-associated invariant T cells
Mucosal-associated invariant T lymphocytes (MAIT lymphocytes) are characterized by two evolutionarily conserved features: an invariant T cell antigen receptor (TCR) α-chain and restriction by the… Expand

CD1 recognition by mouse NK1+ T lymphocytes.
Rare major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I-like CD1-specific T cells have been isolated from human blood, but it has not been determined whether these clones are part of a defined subset of… Expand

An invariant T cell receptor alpha chain is used by a unique subset of major histocompatibility complex class I-specific CD4+ and CD4-8- T cells in mice and humans
The mouse thymus contains a mature T cell subset that is distinguishable from the mainstream thymocytes by several characteristics. It is restricted in its usage of T cell receptor (TCR) V beta genes… Expand

The transcription factor PLZF directs the effector program of the NKT cell lineage.
The transcriptional control of CD1d-restricted NKT cell development has remained elusive. We report that PLZF (promyelocytic leukemia zinc finger, Zbtb16), a member of the BTB/POZ-ZF family of… Expand

Stepwise Development of MAIT Cells in Mouse and Human
Mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells display two evolutionarily conserved features: an invariant T cell receptor (TCR)α (iTCRα) chain and restriction by the nonpolymorphic class Ib major… Expand

Indirect activation of naïve CD4+ T cells by dendritic cell–derived exosomes
Dendritic cells (DCs) secrete vesicles of endosomal origin, called exosomes, that bear major histocompatibility complex (MHC) and T cell costimulatory molecules. Here, we found that injection of… Expand

Human Mucosal Associated Invariant T Cells Detect Bacterially Infected Cells
A first indication of the biological role of mucosal associated invariant T (MAIT) cells reveals that this discrete T cell subset is broadly reactive to bacterial infection. In particular MAIT cells… Expand

Increased interleukin 4 and immunoglobulin E production in transgenic mice overexpressing NK1 T cells
Natural Killer (NK)1.1+ (NK1) T cells are a specialized subset of alpha/beta T cells that coexpress surface receptors that are normally associated with the NK cell lineage of the innate immune… Expand

Anti-NKG2A mAb Is a Checkpoint Inhibitor that Promotes Anti-tumor Immunity by Unleashing Both T and NK Cells
Summary Checkpoint inhibitors have revolutionized cancer treatment. However, only a minority of patients respond to these immunotherapies. Here, we report that blocking the inhibitory NKG2A receptor… Expand
