Histophysiology of thymic epithelial reticular cells.
Thymic epithelial reticular cells together with lymphocytes constitute the thymic parenchyma. Morphologically they are characterized by the stellate aspect forming a cytoreticulum, a large and vesicular nucleus, a tonofilament-rich cytoplasm, and abundance of desmosomes. Besides the role of providing a structural support for lymphocytes, epithelial reticular cells are responsible for the secret...
متن کاملTranscriptome sequencing of neonatal thymic epithelial cells
In order to gain novel insights into thymus biology, we analysed the whole transcriptome of cortical and medullary thymic epithelial cells (cTECs and mTECs) and of skin epithelial cells (ECs). Consistent with their ability to express ectopic genes, mTECs expressed more genes than other cell populations. Out of a total of 15,069 genes expressed in TECs, 25% were differentially expressed by at le...

متن کاملHigh efficiency transfection of thymic epithelial cell lines and primary thymic epithelial cells by Nucleofection
Thymic epithelial cells (TECs) are required for the development and differentiation of T cells and are sufficient for the positive and negative selection of developing T cells. Although TECs play a critical role in T cell biology, simple, efficient and readily scalable methods for the transfection of TEC lines and primary TECs have not been described. We tested the efficiency of Nucleofection f...
متن کاملHuman thymic epithelial cells produce interleukin-3.
Interleukin-3 (IL-3) is a hematopoietic growth factor suggested to be produced by activated T lymphocytes. Meanwhile, supernatants from human thymic stroma could promote the proliferation of myeloid stem cells. Thus, we investigated whether IL-3 accounts for this activity. Therefore, human thymic epithelial cells (TEC), fibroblasts, and adherent cells were isolated, and their culture supernatan...
