Blood–thymus barrier

Barrier formed by the continuous blood capillaries in the thymic cortex

The blood–thymus barrier regulates exchange of substances between the circulatory system and thymus, providing a sequestered environment for immature T cells to develop. The barrier also prevents the immature T cells from contacting foreign antigens.
