mortality/aging
• 60% mortality at day 12 after inoculation with C. rodentium

immune system
• mice challenged with Staphylococcus epidermidis cell-free supernatant exhibit impaired T cells (including CD4+, Th1, and Th17 cells) recruitment and production of IL17a compared with similarly treated wild-type mice
• mice challenged with Staphylococcus epidermidis cell-free supernatant exhibit fewer IL17a producing cells compared to in similarly treated wild-type mice
• following carrageenan induced inflammation, mice exhibit impaired neutrophil resolution after 7 days and delayed macrophage infiltration compared to in similarly treated wild-type mice
• 60% mortality at day 12 after inoculation with C. rodentium

homeostasis/metabolism
• at healing wounds, mice exhibit delayed re-epithelialization, formation of granulation tissue, macrophage infiltration, fibrin clearance, and vascularization compared with wild-type mice
• wounds become expanded beyond the boundaries of the original wound unlike in wild-type mice
• 24 hours after scalpel cortex injury, mice exhibit reduced microglial and astrocyte reaction compared with similarly treated wild-type mice (J:89814)
• following exposure to acid-induced acute lung injury, mice exhibit alleviated symptoms compared to wild-type mice (J:145306)

liver/biliary system
• modestly reduced oval cell response to a choline deficient diet and ethionine in the drinking water

nervous system
• 24 hours after scalpel cortex injury, mice exhibit reduced microglial and astrocyte reaction compared with similarly treated wild-type mice

hematopoietic system
• mice challenged with Staphylococcus epidermidis cell-free supernatant exhibit impaired T cells (including CD4+, Th1, and Th17 cells) recruitment and production of IL17a compared with similarly treated wild-type mice
