New Study Reveals How Key Immune Regulator Shapes Interferon Signals in Developing T Cells
A new study shows that the Aire protein—best known for helping the immune system learn to tolerate the body’s own tissues—also plays an important role in producing interferons within the thymus. Using single‑cell RNA sequencing, researchers found that mice lacking Aire had weakened interferon‑driven signals in several developing thymus cell types, including maturing T cells …
