T-cell development in the thymus
... The earliest developing thymocytes lack the expression of the co-receptors CD4 and CD8 and are termed double negative (DN) cells. The DN population can be further sub-divided by the expression of CD44 (an adhesion molecule) and CD25 (Interleukin-2 receptor α chain), Figure 1 shows the ordered expres ...

helper T cells

After processing by an antigen-presenting cell, fragments of antigen appear on the surface of that cell in association with class II MH ...
