γδ-T cells
  1. Therapeutic use
    1. cancer immunotherapy
      1. availability of synthetic drugs such as zoledronate, pamidronate and phosphoantigen BrHPP (Bromohydrin Pyrophosphate) etc that selectively activate γδ T cells has allowed for γδ T cells to be used for clinical trials.

                                          1. Gamma/delta T cells form a unique subset of CD3+ T lymphocytes expressing structurally distinct γδ heterodimers as their antigen receptors
                                            1. under 10 % of the total T cell count in the body
                                              1. both innate effector functions and adaptive immune response
                                                1. cause antibody dependant cell mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) via the FC γRIII (CD16) receptors followed by rapid secretion of cytokines and chemokines
                                                  1. respond to phosphoantigens (of microbial origin) and are activated to proliferate and carry out their immune effector functions
                                                    1. Once activated cause present antigens to CD4+ and CD8+ cells
                                                      1. activated by low molecular non peptide phosphoantigens
                                                        1. IPP, HMBPP
                                                          1. secrete cytolytic factors such as granzymes and perforins, along with chemokines (eg. Lymphotactin, RANTES) and immunomodulatory cytokines such as TNF, IFN-γ, IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-17, IL-13, IL-22, and GM-CSF
                                                            1. against invading pathogens or endogenous stress.
                                                        2. γδ T cell arise from DN2 and DN3 stage
                                                          1. receptors similar to those found on NK cells
                                                            1. involved in tissue repair and epithelial cell regeneration
