Phenotypic and Functional Plasticity of Gamma–Delta (γδ) T Cells in Inflammation and Tolerance

Abstract excerpt

Gamma-delta T cells (γδ T cells) are an unique group of lymphocytes and play an important role in bridging the gap between innate and adaptive immune systems under homeostatic condition as well as during infection and inflammation. They are predominantly localized into the mucosal and epithelial sites, but also exist in other peripheral tissues and secondary lymphoid organs. γδ T cells can produce cytokines and...
