Deskripsi

Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis is an autoimmune disease with a complex pathomechanism. Authors here show by single cell RNA sequencing that the thyroidal microenvironment in the disease is characterised by three stromal cell subtypes that are potentially responsible for the recruitment of infiltrating inflammatory immune cells, such as macrophages and dendritic cells.
