The impact of negative selection on thymocyte migration in the medulla
Developing thymocytes are screened for self-reactivity before exiting the thymus, but how thymocytes scan the medulla for self-antigens is unclear. Using two-photon microscopy, we observed that medullary thymocytes migrated rapidly and made frequent, transient contacts with dendritic cells. In the p...
