| Abstract | Although γδ T cells are a common feature of many pathogen-induced immune responses, the factors that influence, promote, or regulate the response of individual γδ T-cell subsets to infection is unknown. Here we show that in the absence of Vγ1+ T cells, novel subsets of γδ T cells, expressing T-cell receptor (TCR)-Vγ chains that normally define TCRγδ+ dendritic epidermal T cells (DETCs) (Vγ5+), intestinal intraepithelial lymphocytes (iIELs) (Vγ7+), and lymphocytes associated with the vaginal epithelia (Vγ6+), are recruited to the spleen in response to bacterial infection in TCR-Vγ1−/− mice. By comparison of phenotype and structure of TCR-Vγ chains and/or -Vδ chains expressed by these novel subsets with those of their epithelium-associated counterparts, the Vγ6+ T cells elicited in infected Vγ1−/− mice were shown to be identical to those found in the reproductive tract, from where they are presumably recruited in the absence of Vγ1+ T cells. By contrast, Vγ5+ and Vγ7+ T cells found in infected Vγ1−/− mice were distinct from Vγ5+ DETCs and Vγ7+ iIELs. Functional analyses of the novel γδ T-cell subsets identified for infected Vγ1−/− mice showed that whereas the Vγ5+ and Vγ7+ subsets may compensate for the absence of Vγ1+ T cells by producing similar cytokines, they do not possess cytocidal activity and they cannot replace the macrophage homeostasis function of Vγ1+ T cells. Collectively, these findings identify novel subsets of γδ T cells, the recruitment and activity of which is under the control of Vγ1+ T cells. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
