Abstract excerpt
Thymocytes with a CD4(hi)CD8(lo) coreceptor-skewed (CRS) phenotype have been shown to contain precursors for CD8 single-positive (SP) thymocytes, in addition to precursors for CD4 SP cells. The selection mechanisms that stimulate CD4(hi)CD8(lo) cells to revert to the CD8 lineage are not known. Mice transgenic (tg) for the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I-restricted P14 T cell receptor (TCR), on the...
