Overview

This second edition volume provides new and updated chapters detailing simple and accessible experiment protocols to explore thymus biology. Chapters are divided into three parts presenting short reviews, analysis strategies, protocols for cell preparation, flow cytometry analyses, Innate Lymphoid Cells (ILC), mouse T-cell development, antigen receptor-less cousins of T cells, bone marrow chimeras, thymic stroma, and multiple aspects of thymocyte biology. Written in the successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible protocols, and notes on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.   Authoritative and cutting-edge, T-Cell Development: Methods and Protocols, Second Edition aims to be a useful practical guide to help readers overcome obstacles associated with experimental approaches of T-cell development.
