2.1 POJA-L913. Thymus cortex (mouse, young adult)
2.1 POJA-L913
Title: Thymus cortex (mouse, young adult)
Description: Stain: Hematoxylin.
Autoradiography after pulse labelling with tritiated thymidin.
Most of the (black) radioactive labelling is found in the outer thymic cortex (3) where pre-T cells divide and subsequently migrate to the lighter-stained medulla (1) that consists of a more loosened framework of epithelioreticular cells with less thymocytes, macrophages and blood vessels.
Keywords/Mesh: lymphatic tissue, thymus, cortex, autoradiography, histology, POJA collection
