摘要: Mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells are tissue-homing recently implicated in HIV pathogenesis. We found that the proportion of MAIT cell blood and colon HIV+ patients reduced untreated infection. Antiretroviral therapy restored colonic but not percentages. observed a negative correlation between T-cell activation suggest mucosal depletion may contribute to systemic immune
