It's Time to Unite: Diversity and Coordination of Thymic Stromal Cells for T Cell Selection and Organ Integrity

Immunological Reviews, Volume 332, Issue 1, July 2025.
ABSTRACT The thymus is a primary lymphoid organ for generating a diverse yet self‐tolerant T cell repertoire. Among the thymic stromal cells that create the thymic microenvironment, thymic epithelial cells (TECs) have received the most attention because of their distinctive functions in the repertoire selection of T cells. Other types of thymic stromal
