Ly6d expression delineates two putative postnatal thymus epithelial progenitor cells that are differentially affected by aging

To date, the identity and maintenance of postnatal thymic epithelial progenitor cells (TEPCs) remain unclear, as does the persistence of bipotent TEPCs after birth or whether lineage-restricted progenitors independently maintain separate TEC compartments. Using an inducible linea...
