Protective function of an unconventional γδ T cell subset against malaria infection in apoptosis inhibitor deficient mice

► Vγ7+ γδ T cell contribute to protection against malaria infection. ► Vγ7+ γδ T cell play multi-faceted role in protection against malaria infection. ► Vγ7+ γδ T cell migrate to the liver and spleen from IELs via lymphatic vessels.
