Mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells are MR1-restricted innate-like T cells that recognize non-peptide antigens including riboflavin derivates. Although <i>in vitro</i>-activated MAIT cells show antitumor activity, the <i>in vivo</i> role of MAIT cells in cancer is still unclear. Here, we have shown that MAIT cells have antitumor function <i>in vivo</i> when activated by a combination of the synthetic riboflavin synthesis pathway-derived antigen 5-OP-RU [5-(2-oxopropylideneamino)-6-D-ribi ...[more]
