Three distinct subsets of thymic epithelial cells in rats and mice defined by novel antibodies.
Thymic epithelial cells (TECs) are thought to play an essential role in T cell development and have been detected mainly in mice using lectin binding and antibodies to keratins. Our aim in the present study was to create a precise map of rat TECs using antibodies to putative markers and novel monocl...
