In vitro Differentiation of Thymic T_reg Cell Progenitors to Mature Thymic T_reg Cells

Authors: David L. Owen and Michael A. Farrar, date: 08/20/2019, view: 425, Q&A: 0

Thymic T_reg cell differentiation occurs via a two-step process. Step one generates T_reg cell progenitors (T_regP) and is driven by strong TCR interactions with antigens presented in the thymus. Step two is initiated ...

Ultrasound Guided Intra-thymic Injection to Track Recent Thymic Emigrants and Investigate T Cell Development

Authors: Haiguang Wang, David L. Owen, Lily J. Qian, Laura B. Chopp, Michael A. Farrar and Kristin A. Hogquist, date: 12/05/2018, view: 1235, Q&A: 0

To track recent thymic emigrants (RTEs) or study T cell development in the thymus, intra-thymic injection of a cellular tag or precursor cells for various T cell lineages is often desired. However, the traditional surgical approach to expose the ...
