Upon activation, MAIT cells produce inflammatory cytokines, including IFN-γ, TNF-α, and IL-17. mucosal-associated invariant T-cell, human mucosal-associated invariant T lymphocyte, human mucosal-associated invariant T-lymphocyte, human Homo sapiens T cell receptor alpha variable 1-2 (human) killer cell lectin-like receptor subfamily B member 1 (human)
