immune system
• neutrophils that accumulate at the site of a local Shwartman response are round instead of flattened as in wild-type mice
|
• neutrophil degranulation after adhesion is decreased compared to in wild-type mice
|
• following exposure to LPS then challenge with TNF at the same site to initiate a local Shwartman response, mice fail to exhibit hemorrhage and have fewer thrombus-occluded vessels and reduced fibrin compared to the thrombohemorrhagic vasculitis observed in wild-type mice
• however, neutrophil accumulation at the site of the Shwartman response is normal and adoptive transfer of neutrophils into a wild-type mouse elicits a normal local Shwartman response
|
homeostasis/metabolism
• mouse serum fails to support neutrophil adhesion unlike serum from wild-type mice
|
hematopoietic system
• neutrophils that accumulate at the site of a local Shwartman response are round instead of flattened as in wild-type mice
|
• neutrophil degranulation after adhesion is decreased compared to in wild-type mice
