Im afraid that your question is quite unclear.

If you are refering to how the thymus turns pre-T Cells into Naieve T-cells, this is not a process mediated by a secretion. Its a process called positive and negative selection (or central tollerance) mediated by surface molecules called MHCs present on thymic cells and Dendritic Cells, which eliminates those cells that either do not react with these MHCs or react too strongly. I hope this answers your question.............

The gland produces thymosins, which are hormones that stimulate the development of antibodies. The thymus also produces T-lymphocytes which are white blood cells that fight infections and destroy abnormal cells.


Which type of white blood cells is produced in the thymus and destroys the cell membranes of bacteria?

The primary function of the thymus is the processing and maturation of special lymphocytes (white blood cells) called T-lymphocytes or T-cells, which are associated with antibody production. T-lymphocytes migrate from the bone marrow to the thymus, where they mature and differentiate until activated. in short the thymocytes present in the thymus produces the T lymphocytes
