There was an even stronger association in the DN MAIT subset: the frequency of DN MAITs was positively correlated with the frequency of perforin+ MAIT cells across all the samples (r = 0.393, p < 0.0001 for the total sample set), while the ME-MM clinical group had higher correlation coefficients than the ME-SA (r = 0.612, p < 0.0001 for ME-MM; r = 0.234, p = 0.0008 for ME-SA; Fig. 4d). This evidence concerns the gene PRF1 and Miyoshi myopathy.
