The role of the transcription factor Foxn1 in Thymus organogenesis and maintenance [PDF]
, 2014 The thymus is the primary lymphoid organ responsible for T-cell development and selection, which requires a specialised stromal microenvironment. The thymic stroma consists mainly of thymic epithelial cells (TEC), which can be divided into cortical (c ...

The effects of intracerebroventricularly applied ghrelin on thymocytes and thymic architecture in rats of different ages [PDF]
Archives of Biological Sciences, 2020 Ghrelin positively influences the total number of thymocytes and size of the thymus in 14-, 20- and 24-month-old rats. We examined the effect of centrally-applied ghrelin on thymus weight and structure in Wistar rats of different ages. The study included
