Combined transient ablation and single-cell RNA-sequencing reveals the development of medullary thymic epithelial cells
23 Nov 2020
Abstract excerpt
Medullary thymic epithelial cells (mTECs) play a critical role in central immune tolerance by mediating negative selection of autoreactive T cells through the collective expression of the peripheral self-antigen compartment, including tissue-specific antigens (TSAs). Recent work has shown that gene-expression patterns within the mTEC compartment are heterogenous and include multiple differentiated cell states. To...
