Abstract excerpt
The thymic stromal network is complex and heterogeneous, containing thymic epithelial cells which are thought to play an important role during T-cell development and thymic fibroblasts which role is less defined.

We transfected SV40 ori- into fetal and postnatal thymic stromal cell cultures and obtained...
