Thymus
From MEpedia, a crowd-sourced encyclopedia of ME and CFS science and history
The thymus is a specialized primary lymphoid organ of the immune system. Within the thymus, T cells mature. T cells are critical to the adaptive immune system, where the body adapts specifically to foreign invaders.
Thymosin[edit | edit source]
Thymosin is the hormone of the thymus, and it stimulates the development of disease-fighting T cells.
