[Phenotypic and functional analysis of thymic nurse cell (TNC)-lymphocytes].

Wiener klinische Wochenschrift - 1 Jan 1991

Penninger J

Abstract excerpt

Thymic nurse cells (TNC) are epithelial cells containing intact T-cells engulfed within membrane-lined vacuoles in their cytoplasm. Since thymic epithelial cells strongly express MHC class I and II antigens, these lymphoid-epithelial complexes have been considered to provide an optimal micro-environment for the process of self-recognition and/or clonal deactivation of thymocytes. The present experiments were...
