The complex crosstalk between UC T cells and the surrounding factors is discussed in this review, with a focus on how these cells might be interesting candidates to explore and exploit as anticancer therapeutic agents. However, the great potential of UC T cells, not only demonstrated in the context of adoptive cell transfer, but also enhanced through techniques of engineering, is still flanked by different challenges, like the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment and heterogeneity of target molecules associated with some specific categories of tumors, like gastrointestinal cancers.
