The thymus plays a key role in the body's immune response. It is here where the T lymphocytes or T cells, a major type of immune defence cells, mature. Different types of T cells, designated to ...
Scientists have visualized how the body uses to tests out important defensive cells and captured the process on video. The body uses immune T-cells to act as the first line of defense, monitoring the ...
T cell development occurs in the thymus, which provides a unique microenvironment and presents ligands consisting of self peptide and major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules to T cell ...
Following entry into the thymus, lymphoid progenitor cells begin their development into T cells through the developmental pathway that is commonly identified by the expression profiles of CD25 and ...
Live from the thymus: T-cells on the move Date: February 17, 2012 Source: Max-Planck-Gesellschaft Summary: For the first time, scientists follow the development of individual immune cells in a ...
The thymus is a small, inconspicuous organ, but it is also vital for a functional immune system. This is because it is the development site of the T-lymphocytes (T-cells), which play a central ...
Thymic crosstalk between T cells and the thymus during T-cell priming shapes how the thymus grows and shapes itself.
The appropriate maturation of thymocytes into functionally capable, self-tolerant T-cells and the eradication of autoreactive T-cells depend on a normal thymic microenvironment.
The thymus plays a key role in the body's immune response. It is here where the T lymphocytes or T cells, a major type of immune defence cells, mature. Different types of T cells, designated to ...
During their development, the immune cells migrate into and out of the thymus more than once. The zebrafish is thus an ideal animal model for studying the dynamic processes of immune cell development.
