Since the time of those experiments, it has become apparent that the efficacy of thymic negative selection in purging the T cell repertoire of potentially self-reactive cells is enhanced by the ...

Negative selection in fetal thymus clonally deletes many self-reactive T cells, permanently removing them as potential sources of autoimmune attack. Self-reactive T cells slipping past thymic ...

The thymus selects and educates immature T-cells, turning only the best candidates ... I will be keen to discuss strategic patient selection by HLA matching. I will be able to say more about ...

The thymus gland is part of our lymphatic system. It’s involved in the development of a type of white blood cell called a T lymphocyte. These white blood cells are part of your immune system. They ...

CD8 T cells lacking Tet1/3 preferentially differentiate into short-lived effector and effector memory cells following acute ...

A discovery published in Nature Immunology has shed light on why the immune system is less aggressive toward self-antigens, ...

Researchers from the La Jolla Institute for Immunology recently used the Expanse supercomputer at the San Diego Supercomputer ...
