Abstract excerpt
Under non-pathological conditions, human γδ T cells represent a small fraction of CD3+ T cells in peripheral blood (1-10%). They constitute a unique subset of T lymphocytes that recognize stress ligands or non-peptide antigens through MHC-independent presentation. Major human γδ T cell subsets, Vδ1 and Vδ2, expand in response to microbial infection or malignancy, but possess distinct tissue localization, antigen...
