Abstract excerpt
A panel monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) raised to rat thymic non-lymphoid cells has been shown to discriminate between distinct subpopulations of macrophages depending on their anatomic localization in the thymus. These reagents were used in this study to examine the expression of macrophage-associated antigens in primary culture of rat thymic stromal cells. The phenotype of both adherent macrophage (AM) monolayers...
