Abstract
The fellow will study the transcriptional profile involving mRNAs and miRNAs of thymocytes that physically interact with Aire wild-type (wt) or Aire mutant mTECs cells (adhesion mTECs-thymocytes in vitro). As discussed in the thematic project, the interaction between thymocytes and epithelial thymic cells (TECs) is essential for the development of these two cell types. To test this hypoth…
