Abstract
My colleagues and I have a long-term interest in interactions between intraepithelial gammadelta T cells and neighboring epithelial cells. We have focused our studies on interactions in the thymus, skin, and intestine, and are investigating the development, specificity, and function of these gammadelta T cells. Our results have defined unique properties of these cells and support a specialized role for epithelial gammadelta T cells in immune surveillance, wound repair, inflammation, and protection from malignancy.Entities:
