## Abstract Based on the evidence that IL‐17 is a key cytokine involved in various inflammatory diseases, we explored the critical role of IL‐17‐producing γδ T cells for tumor development in tumor‐bearing mouse model. IL‐17^−/−^ mice exhibited a significant reduction of tumor growth, concomitantly

## Abstract Recent reports have provided convincing evidence that IL‐17‐producing T cells play a key role in the pathogenesis of organ‐specific autoimmune diseases, a function previously attributed exclusively to IFN‐γ‐secreting Th1 cells. Furthermore, it appears that IL‐17‐producing T cells can al
~6 T cells consist of multiple lineages of cells with distinct antigen receptor repertoires, tissue localization and function. Recent evidence suggests that the ordered appearance of these sublineages during development is a result of programed rearrangement of Vy-gene segments. It appears that the
