Abstract

Questions regarding T cell development have recently received much attention, but the earliest intrathymic differentiation steps in adult mice have remained controversial. Three new papers together show that for at least some thymus-settling precursors, the loss of B lineage potential occurs in the thymus, and Notch acts on multipotent progenitors early after thymic entry.
