In view of the documented perivascular mononuclear cell infiltration in the involved organs in scleroderma (SSc) and the reported accumulation of gamma delta -T cells in SSc skin and lung, we evaluated gamma delta -T cell interaction with endothelial cells (EC) in vitro. gamma delta - and alpha beta...
