Molecules and mechanisms implicated in the peculiar antigenic activation process of human Vγ9Vδ2 T cells
In humans, as well as in most non-human primates, the major peripheral γδ T cell subset, which accounts several percent of the whole lymphoid cells pool in adults, carries an heterodimeric TCR composed of Vγ9 and Vδ2 chains. Vγ9Vδ2 T cells are specifically and strongly activated by small organic pyr...
