A focused in situ hybridization screen identifies candidate transcriptional regulators of thymic epithelial cell development and function.
BACKGROUND: Thymic epithelial cells (TECs) are necessary for normal T cell development. Currently, one transcription factor, Foxn1 is known to be necessary for the progression of fetal TEC differentiation. However, some aspects of fetal TEC differentiation occur in Foxn1 mutants, suggesting the exis...
