  • Potential role of γδ T cell-derived IL-17 in acute cardiac allograft rejection.

    Kimura N, Nakae S, Itoh S, Merk DR, Wang X, Gong Y, Okamura H, Chang PA, Adachi H, Robbins RC, Fischbein MP. Ann Thorac Surg. 2012; 94 (2): 542-8

    Although αβ T cells are known to participate in the development of acute cardiac allograft rejection, the role of γδ T cells remains poorly understood. We hypothesized that γδ T cells contribute to acute allograft rejection thru interleukin (IL)-17 production.
