HSPs demonstrate a strong association with gamma-delta (γδ) T cells. Most of the studies regarding interactions between the parameters were conducted in the 1990s. Despite promising results, the concept of targeting γδ T cells by HSPs seems to be a forgotten direction due to potent non-peptidic phosphoantigens rather than HSPs have been found to be the essential stimulatory components for human γδ cells. Currently, with greater knowledge of lymphocyte diversity, and more accurate diagnostic methods, we decided to study the correlation once again in the neoplastic condition. Twenty-one children with newly diagnosed acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) were enrolled on the study. Serum HSP90 concentrations were evaluated by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), subsets of γδ T cells (CD3+ γδ, CD3+ γδ HLA/DR+, CD4+ γδ and CD8+ γδ) by flow cytometry. We have shown statistically relevant correlations between serum HSP90 and CD3+ HLA/DR+ γδ T cells in paediatric ALL at diagnosis (R = 0.53, p <
