Dendritic epidermal T cells: lessons from mice for humans.

Abstract excerpt

Dendritic epidermal T cells (DETC) in mice form part of a primitive system of epithelial-resident T cells characterized by the expression of gamma delta T-cell receptors (TCR). Critical attributes that characterize DETC include their highly restricted T-cell receptor gene utilization, proliferation and maturation within epidermis, a capacity to kill relevant skin-derived tumor targets, and the ability to modulate...
