immune system
• in all hypoplastic thymi but are blastocyst derived
|
• marked deficiency of thymocytes, peripheral lymph node cells, and splenic lymphocytes in four of seven 10-22 week old chimeric mice
• inverse relationsip between the degree of chimerism and lymphoid reconsititution in five mice between 10 and 14 weeks in age
• mice at 17 and 22 weeks show normal lymphoid reconstitution
• ratio of T to B cells normal
|
• decreased numbers but normal ratio of CD4+ to CD8+ single positive cells
|
• diminished proliferative response to anti-CD40
• response to anti-CD40 in culture can be partially restored by recombinant Il4
|
• markedly decreased
• corrollated to Il4 levels secreted by T-cells
|
• markedly decreased
• corrollated to Il4 levels secreted by T-cells
|
• normal to slightly decreased
|
• normal to slightly decreased
|
• reduced proliferative response to anti-CD3
|
• impaired generation of Th2 cells
|
• very reduced
