[Interaction of thymic cells and hemopoietic stem cells. Enhancing effect on irradiated thymus repopulation]
Abstract:
In irradiated mice engrafted with hemopoietic cells, the thymus is repopulated more rapidly by bone marrow-derived than by spleen-derived cells. Admixing thymic cells with the restorative suspension stimulates the thymic repopulation by spleen-derived cells whereas it has no effect on the repopulation by bone marrow-derived cells.
