Recent thymic emigrants produce antimicrobial IL-8, express complement receptors and are precursors of a tissue-homing Th8 lineage of memory cells

Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> The adaptive immune system utilizes multiple mechanisms linked to innate immune cell functions to respond appropriately to pathogens and commensals. Here we discover further aspects of this connectivity by demonstrating that naïve T cells as they emerge from the thymus (recent thymic emigrants, RTEs) express complement receptors (CR1 and CR2), the bacterial pathogen recognition receptor TLR1 and...
