Fibronectin modulates thymocyte-thymic epithelial cell interactions following Trypanosoma cruzi infection
Developing thymocytes interact with thymic epithelial cells (TECs) through cell-cell interactions, TEC-derived secretory moieties and extracellular matrix (ECM)-mediated interactions. These physiological interactions are crucial for normal thymocyte differentiation, but can be disrupted in pathologi...
