Synopsis

This book provides concise information on the structure and function of the thymus, which plays a crucial role in T cell differentiation and is an excellent developmental model for the study of both molecular and cellular aspects. The authors, internationally known researchers, give readers full coverage of the thymocyte populations and dynamics, development of the T cell repertoire, and the thymic microenvironment, including nurse cells and thymic hormones. A convenient overview offers readers up-to-date coverage of important recent developments. This is an accessible and useful book for immunologists, biochemists, physiologists, and medical students.
