hematopoietic system
N |
• at 6 and 10 months, mice exhibit normal hematopoiesis
|
• from 3 to 14 weeks, the frequency of S-phase cells in the thymus is greater than in wild-type mice
• from 3 to 14 weeks, 27% of mice exhibit a discrete sub-G1 peak unlike wild-type profiles
• however, rates of apoptosis are normal
|
• at 3 weeks, spleens are larger than normal
• however, by 5 weeks of age spleen size is normal
|
• 2-fold at 19 and 20 days of age
|
• DNA replication occasionally fails in the bone marrow unlike in wild-type bone marrow
• from 3 to 14 weeks, the frequency of S-phase cells in the bone marrow is greater than in wild-type mice
• from 3 to 14 weeks, the frequency of S-phase cells in the bone marrow with abnormal profiles (7% of mice examined) is 2-fold less than in wild-type mice without a discrete G2 peak
• however, rates of apoptosis are normal
|
cellular
• cultured fibroblasts grow more slowly than wild-type cells
|
• the frequency of micronuclei is 2-fold at 7 weeks and 3-fold at 15 months compared to in wild-type mice
|
neoplasm
• mice develop 5 times as many tumors over two years compared to wild-type mice
• mice develop a range of epithelial tumors not observed in wild-type mice
• two superficial tumors with adnexal differentiation develop
|
growth/size/body
• 20% at 6 months
|
• at 5 weeks
|
• at 3 weeks, spleens are larger than normal
• however, by 5 weeks of age spleen size is normal
|
immune system
• however, rates of apoptosis are normal
• from 3 to 14 weeks, 27% of mice exhibit a discrete sub-G1 peak unlike wild-type profiles
• from 3 to 14 weeks, the frequency of S-phase cells in the thymus is greater than in wild-type mice
|
• at 3 weeks, spleens are larger than normal
• however, by 5 weeks of age spleen size is normal
|
• at 3 weeks, the frequency of S-phase cells is 2-fold higher than in wild-type spleens
• at 18 days and 19 days, the frequency of S-phase cells in the spleen is increased compared to in wild-type mice
• at day 19, 4% of mice exhibit an increase in sub-G1 cells in the spleen compared to in wild-type spleens
• the frequency of micronuclei is 2-fold at 7 weeks and 3-fold at 15 months compared to in wild-type mice
|
endocrine/exocrine glands
• from 3 to 14 weeks, the frequency of S-phase cells in the thymus is greater than in wild-type mice
• from 3 to 14 weeks, 27% of mice exhibit a discrete sub-G1 peak unlike wild-type profiles
• however, rates of apoptosis are normal
