immune system

abnormal B cell differentiation ( J:120460 )

• innocuous transgenic BCR on Blnk null B cells leads to enhanced development of these B cells compared to Blnk homozygotes

• two populations are detected in the bone marrow consisting of IgM^lo and IgM^hi groups

• both populations appear to be immature B cells as they have low surface level expression of MHC-II and CD43, and high levels of CD24

• based on intensity of these surface markers, the IgM^lo population is the less mature of the two

• in vitro maturation of bone marrow cells demonstrate delayed development of these IgM⁺ cells
