Abstract
► Primary source of IL-17A is TCRγδ+ T cells from the murine female genital tract. ► IL-17A producing TCR γδ+ T cells have different characteristics from splenic TCRγδ+ T cells. ► IL-17A producing TCRγδ+ T cells are not affected by microflora and virus infection. ► Absence of IL-17A delays death of mice after vaginal HSV-2 infection.
