Depletion of a {gamma}{delta} T Cell Subset Can Increase Host Resistance to a Bacterial Infection1

{gamma}{delta} T lymphocytes have been shown to regulate immune responses in diverse experimental systems. Because distinct {gamma}{delta} T cell subsets, as defined by the usage of certain TCR V genes, preferentially respond in various diseases and disease models, we have hypothesized that the various {gamma}{delta} T cell subsets carry out different functions. To test this, we compared one particular {gamma}{delta} T cell subset, the V{gamma}1+ subset, which represents a major {gamma}{delta} T cell type in the lymphoid organs and blood of mice, to other subsets and to {gamma}{delta} T cells as a whole. Using Listeria monocytogenes infection as an infectious disease model, we found that bacterial containment improves in mice depleted of V{gamma}1+ {gamma}{delta} T cells, albeit mice lacking all {gamma}{delta} T cells are instead impaired in their ability to control Listeria expansion. Our findings indicate that V{gamma}1+ {gamma}{delta} T cells reduce the ability of the innate immune system to destroy Listeria, even though other {gamma}{delta} T cells as a whole promote clearance of this pathogen.
