title: An intermediate cell in thymocyte differentiation that expresses CD8 but not CD4 antigen.
abstract: Thymocytes of CD4-,CD8+,OX-44- phenotype have been shown to be an intermediate of thymopoiesis that give rise to cells of CD4+, CD8+, OX-44- normal cortical thymocyte phenotype both in vitro and in vivo during thymic regeneration.
