Combined transient ablation and single-cell RNA-sequencing reveals the development of medullary thymic epithelial cells
Medullary thymic epithelial cells (mTECs) play a critical role in central immune tolerance by mediating negative selection of autoreactive T cells through the collective expression of the peripheral self-antigen compartment, including tissue-specific antigens (TSAs). Recent work has shown that gene-...
