abstract = {Vδ1 T cells are a subpopulation of γδT cells found in
human dermis. In contrast to murine skin-resident γδT
cells, much less is known regarding their role and function
in skin health and disease. Here we report the successful
integration of Vδ1 T cells into long-term
fibroblast-derived matrix skin equivalents (SE). We isolated
Vδ1 T cells from human blood, where they are rare, and
established conditions for the integration and maintenance
of the freshly isolated Vδ1 T cells in the SEs. Plated on
top of the dermal equivalents (DEs), almost all Vδ1 T cells
migrated into the dermal matrix where they exerted their
influence on both the DE and the epithelium. Vδ1 T cells
contributed to epidermal differentiation as indicated by
histology, expression of epidermal differentiation markers
and RNAseq expression profile. When complemented with the
carcinoma-derived SCC13 cells instead of HaCaT, our data
suggest a role for Vδ1 T cells in slowing growth of the
tumor cells, as indicated by reduced stratification and
changes in gene expression profiles. Together, we
demonstrate the successful establishment of human Vδ1 T
cell-competent skin and skin carcinoma equivalents (SE, SCE)
and provide evidence for molecular and functional
consequences of the Vδ1 T cells on their respective
environment.},
