Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains a global health challenge with limited treatment options and a poor prognosis for advanced-stage patients. Recent advancements in cancer immunotherapy have generated significant interest in exploring novel approaches to combat HCC. One such approach involves the unique and versatile subset of T cells known as γδ T cells. γδ T cells represent a distinct subset of T lymphocytes that differ from conventional αβ T cells in terms of antigen recognition and effector functions. They play a crucial role in immunosurveillance against various malignancies, including HCC. Recent studies have demonstrated that γδ T cells can directly recognize and target HCC cells, making them an attractive candidate for immunotherapy. In this article, we aimed to explore the role exerted by γδ T cells in the context of HCC. We investigate strategies designed to maximize the therapeutic effectiveness of these cells and examine the challenges and opportunities inherent in applying these research findings to clinical practice. The potential to bring about a revolutionary shift in HCC immunotherapy by capitalizing on the unique attributes of γδ T cells offers considerable promise for enhancing patient outcomes, warranting further investigation.
