Quorum-Sensing in CD4(+) T Cell Homeostasis: A Hypothesis and a Model

Homeostasis of lymphocyte numbers is believed to be due to competition between cellular populations for a common niche of restricted size, defined by the combination of interactions and trophic factors required for cell survival. Here we propose a new mechanism: homeostasis of lymphocyte numbers cou...
