Abstract
In this article for the Highlights of 2023 Series, we discuss four recent articles that investigated thymic B cells, in both mice and humans. These studies provide important novel insights into the biology of this unique B-cell population, from their activation and differentiation to their role in promoting the negative selection of thymocytes and the generation of regulatory T cells.
期刊介绍:
The Australasian Society for Immunology Incorporated (ASI) was created by the amalgamation in 1991 of the Australian Society for Immunology, formed in 1970, and the New Zealand Society for Immunology, formed in 1975. The aim of the Society is to encourage and support the discipline of immunology in the Australasian region. It is a broadly based Society, embracing clinical and experimental, cellular and molecular immunology in humans and animals. The Society provides a network for the exchange of information and for collaboration within Australia, New Zealand and overseas. ASI members have been prominent in advancing biological and medical research worldwide. We seek to encourage the study of immunology in Australia and New Zealand and are active in introducing young scientists to the discipline.
