• glomeruli are hypercellular in mutants receiving adoptive transfer of Ifng wild-type F4/80+ macrophages at 2 months

• glomerular damage is more severe in mice receiving cell transfer than in control mice not receiving transfers

abnormal glomerular capillary morphology ( J:123834 )

• thickening of capillary walls in glomeruli is observed in mutants receiving adoptive transfer of Ifng wild-type F4/80+ macrophages at 2 months

increased mesangial cell number ( J:123834 )

• mesangial cells are increased in mutants receiving adoptive transfer of Ifng wild-type F4/80+ macrophages at 2 months

glomerulonephritis ( J:123834 )

• mutants receiving adoptive transfer of Ifng wild-type F4/80+ macrophages at 2 months develop diffuse proliferative glomerulonephritis by 6 months

homeostasis/metabolism

increased blood urea nitrogen level ( J:123834 )

• BUN levels are elevated at time of death in mutants receiving adoptive transfer of Ifng wild-type F4/80+ macrophages at 2 months

cardiovascular system

abnormal glomerular capillary morphology ( J:123834 )

cellular

increased mesangial cell number ( J:123834 )

• mesangial cells are increased in mutants receiving adoptive transfer of Ifng wild-type F4/80+ macrophages at 2 months
