Double-edged sword: γδ T cells in mucosal homeostasis and disease
The mucosa is a tissue that covers numerous body surfaces, including the respiratory tract, digestive tract, eye, and urogenital tract. Mucosa is in direct contact with pathogens, and γδ T cells perform various roles in the tissue. γδ T cells efficiently

Direct and Indirect Effects of Cytomegalovirus-Induced γδ T Cells after Kidney Transplantation [PDF]
Despite effective anti-viral therapies, cytomegalovirus (CMV) is still associated with direct (CMV disease) and indirect effects (rejection and poor graft survival) in kidney transplant recipients. Recently, an unconventional T cell population (collectively designated as Vδ2(neg) γδ T cells) has been characterized during the anti-CMV immune response in

D-Mannose Suppresses γδ T Cells and Alleviates Murine Psoriasis
Psoriasis is a chronic skin disorder associated with multiple sequelae, such as psoriatic arthritis and cardiovascular diseases. Increasing evidence has shown that γδ T cells, as sources of IL-17A, play critical roles in psoriatic inflammations. However,

Multiple Receptor-Ligand Interactions Direct Tissue-Resident γδ T Cell Activation [PDF]
γδ T cells represent a major T cell population in epithelial tissues, such as skin, intestine, and lung, where they function in maintenance of the epithelium and provide a crucial first line defense against environmental and pathogenic insults. Despite their importance, the molecular mechanisms directing their activation and function have remained ...

We previously reported that activated γδ T cells greatly enhance autoimmune responses, particularly the Th17 response. To determine the mechanisms involved, we made a series of comparisons between activated and non-activated γδ T cells.

Phosphoantigen-stimulated γδ T cells suppress natural killer cell–responses to missing-self
γδ T cells stimulated by phosphoantigens (pAg) are potent effectors that secrete Th1 cytokines and kill tumor cells. Consequently, they are considered candidates for use in cancer immunotherapy.

IL17-producing γδ T cells and neutrophils conspire to promote breast cancer metastasis
Metastatic disease remains the primary cause of death for patients with breast cancer. The different steps of the metastatic cascade rely on reciprocal interactions between cancer cells and their microenvironment.

Meningeal γδ T cells regulate anxiety-like behavior via IL-17a signaling in neurons
Interleukin (IL)-17a has been highly conserved during evolution of the vertebrate immune system and widely studied in contexts of infection and autoimmunity.

Cancer Immunotherapy Using γδT Cells: Dealing with Diversity [PDF]
The broad and potent tumor-reactivity of innate-like γδT cells makes them valuable additions to current cancer immunotherapeutic concepts based on adaptive immunity, such as monoclonal antibodies and αβT cells. However, clinical success using γδT cells to treat cancer has so far fallen short.
