## Stromal cell types in the developing thymus of the normal and nude mouse embryo* The anatomical distribution of various nonlymphoid cell types in the embryonic mouse thymus in vivo and in vitro, as well as in the thymic rudiment of the nude mouse embryo, has been studied. For this purpose a pan

β¦ Synopsis
We have directly followed the formation of and the thymus colonization by pro-T lymphocytes in the developing C57BL/6 mouse embryo by using the monoclonal antibody JORO 37-5 specific for pro-T lymphocytes, immunofluorescence staining and flow fluorocytometry or microscopy analysis. The results show that JORO 37-5+ cells begin to appear in the liver at day 9 of gestation. These JORO 37-5+ cells migrate to and colonize the thymus 1 day later, where they expand vigorously during the next 4-5 days and, subsequently, switch off expression of JORO 37-5 as they further differentiate into mature thymocytes.
