hematopoietic system
• females, but not males, show splenomegaly at 9 months of age
• neutrophils of both males and females show alternations in nuclear morphology

immune system
• females, but not males, show splenomegaly at 9 months of age
• neutrophils of both males and females show alternations in nuclear morphology
• females develop lupus autoimmunity, with induction of several autoantibodies, including anti-modified histones, IgG2 antibodies recognizing chromatin, and IgM directed against calreticulin, kidney damage and splenomegaly
• females show development of autoimmunity directed against components of the A-type lamina, but not lamin A/C itself
• anti-neutrophil autoreactivity mediated by IgM is directed against calreticulin, but not myeloperoxidase or proteinase 3, with 9 of 11 females showing detectable anti-calreticulin IgM titers
• females exhibit an increase in serum anti-nuclear antibody levels
• females develop an anti-nuclear autoimmune response that selectively recognizes specific modified histones
• females exhibit an increase in serum titers of anti-chromatin antibodies
• IgG2a, IgG2b, IgG2c, and IgM are prevalent anti-chromatin immunoglobulin subtypes in sera
• however, distribution of anti-double stranded DNA does not differ from controls
