To fulfill that, much has been discussed about the master in the regulation of tolerance, the autoimmune regulator (Aire) gene the main thymus cell type that expresses this gene, the medullary thymic epithelial cells (mTECs). It includes one Editorial and 12 other excellent contributions in the format of mini reviews or original research papers covering one or more of these aspects: promiscuous gene expression (PGE), epigenetics, miRNAs, association of the Aire gene and miRNAs, thymocyte-TEC interaction, coxsackievirus and type 1 diabetes, exosomes in the thymus, thymic crosstalk, thymic B cells, T cell development, chemokines and migration of T cells, miRNAs and the thymic atrophy, cell-cell interactions, and thymus ontogeny. Authors raised hypothesis, discuss concepts, and show open questions. The remaining important issues to resolve questions within the central tolerance research are briefly discussed below. 606 $aMedicine$2bicssc 610 $aAire gene 610 $acell-cell interaction 610 $aCentral Tolerance 610 $aChemokines 610 $amicroRNA 610 $apromiscuous gene expression 610 $aThymic B cell 610 $athymic crosstalk 610 $athymocyte 610 $aThymus 615 7$aMedicine 700 $aGeraldo Aleixo Passos$4auth$01279442 702 $aErnna Herida Oliveira$4auth 702 $aDaniella Areas Mendes-da-Cruz$4auth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910136797903321 996 $aThe Role of Aire, microRNAs and Cell-Cell Interactions on Thymic Architecture and Induction of Tolerance$93015381 997 $aUNINA
