The functions of gammadelta T cells are enigmatic, and these cells are often considered as evolutionary remnants of well-characterized alphabeta T cells. However, their conservation throughout evolution suggests that gammadelta T cells are biologically unique. In ruminants, gammadelta T cells expressing the workshop cluster 1 (WC1) scavenger receptor comprise a large proportion of circulating lymphocytes, suggesting these cells are biologically relevant and functionally different from alphabeta ...[more]
