Human T Cell Receptor γδ Cells Recognize Endogenous Mevalonate Metabolites in Tumor Cells

T lymphocytes expressing the T cell receptor (TCR)-γδ recognize unknown antigens on tumor cells. Here we identify metabolites of the mevalonate pathway as the tumor ligands that activate TCR-γδ cells. In tumor cells, blockade of hydroxy-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase (HMGR), the rate limiting enzyme o...
