Bluesky tip for newbies: Bluesky has no real algorithm. Likes here do nothing but show the poster that you enjoyed their content. That kindness is always going to be appreciated by creators, but if you want to help to boost something here, you have to repost it so others see it. π

Tolerance by eviction "we report that, in mice, CD8 T cell tolerance instead results from premature thymic eviction of immature autoreactive CD8 thymocytes into the periphery, where they differentiate into self-tolerant mature CD8 T cells"

CD8 T cell tolerance results from eviction of immature autoreactive cells from the thymus
Thymic eviction explains CD8 T cell tolerance and why autoreactive CD8 T cells appear in the periphery but not the thymus.
