Regulation and function of innate-like T cells

Abstract:

KLRB1, encoding for CD161, is one of the most favourable prognostic pan-cancer genes. It is expressed by NK- and T-cell subsets, particularly by innate-like T cells such as MAIT and γδT cells. CD161-expressing T-cell subsets share a transcriptional and functional phenotype, including the ability to be activated by cytokines in a T-cell receptor-independent manner, similar to NK cells. The regulation and function of CD161-expressing cells as well as their role in cancer is not fully understood...
