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.............

What organ is in the mediastinum that produces T cell lymphocytes?

The thymus is the organ in the mediastinum that produces T cell lymphocytes. It is a primary lymphoid organ involved in the maturation of T cells, an essential component of the immune system.


What controls the thymus gland?

It doesn't really "control" anything but is where your T lymphocytes (T for thymus) gain their immunocompetency.


What regulates the development and differentiation of T lymphocytes?

Where do T cells become immunocompetent?

T cells become immunocompetent in the thymus, where they undergo maturation and selection processes to ensure proper functioning and self-tolerance. Once they have completed their development in the thymus, they migrate to peripheral tissues to carry out immune responses.


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


Where do T lymphocytes mature in the body?

T lymphocytes mature in the thymus gland, which is located in the chest area behind the breastbone.
