CD11c+ Eosinophils in the Murine Thymus: Developmental Regulation and Recruitment upon MHC Class I-Restricted Thymocyte Deletion
1 Aug 2000
Abstract excerpt
Eosinophils are bone marrow-derived cells released into the circulation during hypersensitivity reactions and parasitic infections. Under normal conditions most eosinophils are tissue bound, where their physiologic role is unclear. During in situ analysis of the thymic microenvironment for CD11c+ dendritic cell subpopulations (APC critical in the process of thymic negative selection) a discrete population of...
