Abstract excerpt
We have now developed temperature sensitive lines of thymic nurse cells (TNCs), using the SV40 viral mutant tsA58, that maintain the ability to selectively internalize a subpopulation of alpha beta TCR+CD4+CD8+ thymocytes in vitro. One line, tsTNC-1, was shown to be able to rescue a subset of CD4+CD8+ thymocytes from programmed cell death at 32 degrees C, the temperature at which binding and internalization were...
