Previous studies have found that γδT cells play a dual role in tumor immunology: tumor-promoting and tumor-controlling.The anti-tumor therapy of γδT cells has made remarkable success in clinical application. Especially in recent years, researchers have provided some novel effective ways such as γδT cells exosomes and adoptive chimeric antigen receptor-γδT cells immunotherapy. However, some problems remain to be solved, such as low expansion rate, poor targeting, and tumor microenvironment limiting the effectiveness of γδT immunotherapy. Traditional Chinese medicine is expected to play a positive role in the body immune-enhancing function, promoting the proliferation and activation of γδT cells, and inducing the differentiation ofγδT cells.
