Description

Dr. Amit Sharma reveals how gamma delta T cells outperform NK cells at clearing senescent cells and why they could reach the clinic faster than you'd expect.

In this third segment, Dr. Sharma introduces gamma delta T cells — what they are, how they recognise senescent cells through a completely different mechanism to NK cells, and what his lab found when they tested them against senescent cells in the lab. The results were striking: gamma delta T cells cleared senescent cells faster and more selectively than any other immune cell they tested. He also shares early mouse data showing that transplanting healthy gamma delta T cells reduced both senescent cell burden and lung fibrosis — with potentially broad implications for fibrotic diseases. And he explains a particularly exciting finding: that expanding gamma delta T cells from older donors in the lab appears to rejuvenate them, which could make autologous therapy a real possibility. 🔬 Topics covered: 🔵 What gamma delta T cells are and how they differ from regular T cells 🔵 How they recognise senescent cells via metabolic stress, a different mechanism to NK cells 🔵 Why this dual recognition makes them harder for senescent cells to evade 🔵 Lab results showing gamma delta T cells outperform NK cells at clearing senescence 🔵 Mouse model data: transplanting gamma delta T cells reduces lung fibrosis 🔵 Can older people's gamma delta T cells be rejuvenated through expansion? 🔵 Off-the-shelf vs autologous therapy feasibility and cost 🔵 Why the path to the clinic may be shorter than for other cell therapies 🔵 NK cells vs gamma delta T cells; which will be used and when? ▶️ This is Part 3 of my full interview with Dr. Sharma.

Great questions, Richard. This looks very promising! Fibrosis is a major problem for many people and we have hope for relief in the not too distant future. I am sure you will keep your followers posted.

I hope we get something major in the next 20 years. For now Partial Epigenetic Reporgramming is probably the biggest candidate

Allogeneic mesenchymal stem cells will modulate Gamma delta T cells. The dominant effect is immunomodulation. The net effect is reduction in SASP.

The most biologically coherent approach is to give them is sequence. (T cells first, followed by aMSC).
