Here we show that podoplanin is also expressed by thymic fibroblastic reticular cells (tFRC), a novel thymic medulla stroma cell type associated with thymic conduits, and involved in development of natural regulatory T cells (nTreg). Young mice deficient in podoplanin lack nTreg owing to retardation of CD4+CD25+ thymocytes in the cortex and missing differentiation of Foxp3+ thymocytes in the medulla. This might be due to CCL21 that delocalizes upon deletion of the CCL21-binding podoplanin from medullar tFRC to cortex areas. The animals do not remain devoid of nTreg but generate them delayed within the first month resulting in Th2-biased hypergammaglobulinemia but not in the death-causing autoimmune phenotype of Foxp3-deficient Scurfy mice."}],"citation":{"mla":"Fuertbauer, Elke, et al. “Thymic Medullar Conduits-Associated Podoplanin Promotes Natural Regulatory T Cells.” <i>Immunology Letters</i>, vol. 154, no. 1–2, Elsevier, 2013, pp. 31–41, doi:<a href=\"https://doi.org/10.1016/j.imlet.2013.07.007\">10.1016/j.imlet.2013.07.007</a>.","ieee":"E.
