The Adventures of TEC and T

Whether T cells are attacking cancer cells or fighting off infections, none of this would be possible without TEC – the T cell’s trusted ally. The story follows the adventures of TEC and T throughout the thymus, the organ responsible for T-cell development. We illustrate the importance of TEC and what happens to these two best friends as we age.
