The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I-related molecule MHC-class-I-related protein 1 (MR1) presents metabolites to distinct MR1-restricted T cell subsets, including mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) and MR1T cells. However, self-reactive MR1T cells and the nature of recognized antigens remain underexplored. Here, we report a cell endogenous carbonyl adduct of adenine (8-(9H-purin-6-yl)-2-oxa-8-azabicyclo[3.

Methods: A narrative literature review was performed to describe the main genetic syndromes associated with tooth agenesis.
Laser-Plasma ion acceleration is acquiring importance on a daily basis due to incipient applicability in certain research fields. However, the energy and divergence control of these brilliant sources can be considered a bottleneck in the development of some applications. In this work, we present the commissioning of a compact proton beamline based on a triplet of quadrupoles dedicated to focus and collect short and energetic pulses, open to the user community.
