OJ Lee, YN Cho, SJ Kee, MJ Kim, HM Jin, SJ Lee… - Experimental …, 2014 - Elsevier
Mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells have been reported to play an antimicrobial role
in infectious diseases. However, little is known about age-and gender-related changes in
circulating MAIT cell level and function in healthy population. The purposes of this study
were to examine the level and cytokine production of circulating MAIT cells and their subsets
in healthy adults and to investigate potential relationships between clinical parameters and
MAIT cell levels or their subset levels. One hundred thirty-three healthy subjects were …
