How Thymocyte Deletion in the Cortex May Curtail Antigen-Specific T-Regulatory Cell Development in the Medulla

CD4(+) T cell responses to self-antigens are pivotal for immunological self-tolerance. Activation of Foxp3(–) T-conventional (T-conv) cells can precipitate autoimmune disease, whereas activation of Foxp3(+) T-regulatory (T-reg) cells is essential to prevent autoimmune disease. This distinction indic...
