Lymphocyte Biology Section, Division of Rheumatology, Immunology, and Allergy, Department of Medicine, Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA 02115, USA
J Immunol 167:6195-201. 2001..Thus, human gammadelta T cells may mediate innate resistance to extracellular bacteria via tightly regulated cytokine production without necessarily expanding in number...
MICA engagement by human Vgamma2Vdelta2 T cells enhances their antigen-dependent effector functionH Das
Lymphocyte Biology Section, Division of Rheumatology, Immunology, and Allergy, Department of Medicine, Brigham and Women s Hospital and, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA 02115, USA
Immunity 15:83-93. 2001..Thus, a MICA-NKG2D interaction may be necessary for an effective innate immune response to microbe-associated antigens that also are constitutively present in vivo...

Food Science and Human Nutrition Department, University of Florida, Gainesville, Florida 32611, USA
J Am Coll Nutr 26:445-52. 2007..Determine if a specific formulation of Camellia sinensis (CSF) can prevent illness and symptoms due to cold and flu, and enhance gammadelta T cell function..
Human V gamma 2V delta 2 T cells augment migration-inhibitory factor secretion and counteract the inhibitory effect of glucocorticoids on IL-1 beta and TNF-alpha productionLisheng Wang
Lymphocyte Biology Section, Division of Rheumatology, Immunology, and Allergy, Department of Medicine, Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School, 75 Francis Street, Boston, MA 02115, USA
J Immunol 168:4889-96. 2002..Thus, human Vgamma2Vdelta2 T cells are likely to play broad-spectrum roles in immunoregulation and immunopathology by influencing MIF secretion and the immunomodulatory function of glucocorticoids...
