Summary: T cell differentiation in the thymus proceeds in an ordered sequence of developmental events characterized by variable expression of CD4 and CD8 coreceptors. Here, we report that immature single-positive (ISP) thymocytes are molecularly distinct

The sensitivity of cells with the various level of NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase 1 to cytotoxic action of quinonimines and α-тоcopherol synthetic derivatives [PDF]
The effects of α-tocopherol with shortened to 6 carbon atoms side chain (α-Toc-C6), α-tocopherol succinate (α-TS) and quinonimine 2,6-dichlorophenolindophenol (DCPIP) on DT-diaphorase activity and viability of rat thymocytes, splenocytes and hepatocytes ...

Both oxidative stress and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress have been implicated in carcinogenesis. It is well documented that cells deficient in the ataxia-telangiectasia mutated (ATM) gene undergo oxidative stress, which is critically involved in ...

CD4 and CD8 T cells are vital components of the immune system. We found that histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3) is critical for the development of CD4 T cells, as HDAC3-deficient DP thymocytes generate only CD8SP thymocytes in mice.

Calcium Signaling Is Impaired in PTEN-Deficient T Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
PTEN (Phosphatase and TENsin homolog) is a well-known tumor suppressor involved in numerous types of cancer, including T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL). In human, loss-of-function mutations of PTEN are correlated to mature T-ALL expressing a T-

BackgroundAfter positive selection, the newly generated single positive (SP) thymocytes migrate to the thymic medulla, where they undergo negative selection to eliminate autoreactive T cells and functional maturation to acquire immune competence and ...

A novel activity on thymocytes cells exerted by the rattlesnake (Crotalus durissus cumanensis) venom
Introduction: The thymus is active mainly during the neonatal and pre-adolescent periods. Objective: To test naïve thymocytes proliferation and monocytes stimulation. Materials and methods: We collected fresh thymus tissue from neonate mice after surgery.

Cytosolic sequestration of Prep1 influences early stages of T cell development.
ObjectivePrep1 and Pbx2 are the main homeodomain DNA-binding proteins of the TALE (three amino acid loop extension) family expressed in the thymus. We previously reported reduced Pbx2 expression and defective thymocyte maturation in Prep1 hypomorphic ...

Summary: Extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) plays critical roles in T cell development in the thymus. Nevertheless, the dynamics of ERK activity and the role of ERK in regulating thymocyte motility remain largely unknown due to technical ...

HIV infection of thymocytes inhibits IL-7 activity without altering CD127 expression
Background Thymic function is altered in HIV infection and characterized by dysregulation of the thymic epithelial network, reduced thymic output and ultimately an impaired naïve T-cell pool.
