yes - correct answer ✔✔Are the RAG genes used in rearrangement?
TCR-beta & pre-T alpha - correct answer ✔✔What makes up a pre-TCR?
IL7 - correct answer ✔✔A cytokine secreted by the thymic stromal cells; binds on CD34 progenitor cells;
during thymocytic commitment.
Notch-1 - correct answer ✔✔Thymocytic cell surface receptor; interacts with transmembrane ligands on
thymic epithelial cells.; lead T-cells to differentiation.
DiGeorge - correct answer ✔✔The ______________________ syndrome is caused by a failure of
development of the thymus.
22 - correct answer ✔✔The failure to develop the thymus is due to a deletion on chromosome
_________.
