A Requirement for IL-2/IL-2 Receptor Signaling in Intrathymic Negative Selection [PDF]

The Journal of Immunology, 2001
Abstract The nature of the signals that influence thymocyte selection and determine the fate of CD4+8+ (double positive) thymocytes remains unclear. Cytokines produced locally in the thymus may modulate signals delivered by TCR-MHC/peptide interactions and thereby influence the fate of double-positive thymocytes.
