Diverse Streptococcus pneumoniae strains drive a MAIT cell response through MR1-dependent and cytokine-driven pathways.
- Abstract:
-
Mucosal Associated Invariant T (MAIT) cells represent an innate T-cell population which can recognize ligands generated by the microbial riboflavin synthesis pathway, presented via the major-histocompatibility-complex (MHC) class I-related molecule MR1. Streptococcus pneumoniae (the 'pneumococcus') is a major human pathogen that is also associated with commensal carriage, thus host control at the mucosal interface is critical. The recognition of pneumococci by MAIT cells has not been defined,...
