Differential controls of MAIT cell effector polarization by mTORC1/mTORC2 via integrating cytokine and costimulatory signals

Mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells are key in immunity and diseases, but how their effector polarization is controlled is still unclear. Here, the authors show that an IL-1β/IL-23/mTORC2 axis is essential for the induction of IL-17-producing MAIT17, while an IL-2/IL-15/mTORC1 axis is import...
