Cervical Thymus in the Mouse

1 Jun 2006

Abstract excerpt

Although thymic ectopy has long been recognized in humans, the functional activity or potential immunological significance of this thymic tissue is unknown. In this study, we describe murine thymic ectopy, cervical thymic tissue that possesses the same general organization as the thoracic thymus, that is able to support T cell differentiation, and that can export T cells to the periphery. Unexpectedly, the...
