The Activation of Mucosal-Associated Invariant T (MAIT) Cells Is Affected by Microbial Diversity and Riboflavin Utilization in vitro

Recent research has demonstrated that MAIT cells are activated by individual bacterial or yeasts species that possess the riboflavin biosynthesis pathway. However, little is known about the MAIT cell activating potential of microbial communities and the contribution of individual community members....
