Mucosal associated invariant T cells: Powerhouses of the lung
The lungs face constant environmental challenges from harmless molecules, airborne pathogens and harmful agents that can damage the tissue. The lungs’ immune system includes numerous tissue-resident lymphocytes that contribute to maintain tissue homeostasis and to the early initiation of immune responses. Amongst tissue-resident lymphocytes, Mucosal Associated Invariant T (MAIT) cells are present in human and murine lungs and emerging evidence supports their contribution to immune responses during infections, chronic inflammatory disorders and cancer. This review explores the mechanisms underpinning MAIT cell functions in the airways, their impact on lung immunity and the potential for targeting pulmonary MAIT cells in a therapeutic context.
期刊介绍：
Immunology Letters provides a vehicle for the speedy publication of experimental papers, (mini)Reviews and Letters to the Editor addressing all aspects of molecular and cellular immunology. The essential criteria for publication will be clarity, experimental soundness and novelty. Results contradictory to current accepted thinking or ideas divergent from actual dogmas will be considered for publication provided that they are based on solid experimental findings.
Preference will be given to papers of immediate importance to other investigators, either by their experimental data, new ideas or new methodology. Scientific correspondence to the Editor-in-Chief related to the published papers may also be accepted provided that they are short and scientifically relevant to the papers mentioned, in order to provide a continuing forum for discussion.
