CD8-positive, gamma-delta intraepithelial T cell differentiation
The process in which a precursor cell type acquires the specialized features of a CD8-positive, gamma-delta intraepithelial T cell. Intraepithelial T cells are found among epithelial cells in mucosal areas and have distinct phenotypes and developmental pathways. [ GOC:add http://openisbn.com/search.php?q=0781735149&isbn=1/ ]
