A cell atlas of human thymic development defines T cell repertoire formation.

TL;DR: The authors' single-cell transcriptome profile of the thymus across the human lifetime and across species provides a high-resolution census of T cell development within the native tissue microenvironment, and identifies novel subpopulations of human thymic fibroblasts and epithelial cells and located them in situ.
Journal ArticleDOI

Developmental and Molecular Characterization of Emerging β- and γδ-Selected Pre-T Cells in the Adult Mouse Thymus

TL;DR: It is shown that CD27 is upregulated in DN3 thymocytes initiating β selection, concomitant with intracellular TCR-β expression, which generates CD4^+CD8^+ progeny with more than 90% efficiency, faster and more efficiently than the CD27^(low) majority.
