High Throughput Human T Cell Receptor Sequencing: A New Window Into Repertoire Establishment and Alloreactivity

Recent advances in high throughput sequencing (HTS) of T cell receptors (TCRs) and in transcriptomic analysis, particularly at the single cell level, have opened the door to a new level of understanding of human immunology and immune-related diseases. In this article, we discuss the use of HTS of TC...
