immune system
• in the small intestine, the number of TCR-alpha,beta+ intraepithelial lymphocytes that are Thy1+ CD8alpha,beta+ is increased while the number of CD8alphalpha+ intraepithelial lymphocytes is decreased compared to in wild-type mice
• however, the numbers of TCR-alpha,beta cells are normal in the large intestine and in mice housed in germ-free environments
• the small intestine exhibit a slight increase in the numbers of Thy1+ TCR-gamma,delta+ intraepithelial lymphocytes and slight decrease in CD8alpha,alpha+ TCR-gamma,delta intraepithelial lymphocytes compared to in wild-type mice
• the numbers of Thy1.2+ and CD8alpha,beta lymphocytes in the small intestine are preferentially increased compared to in Tcrdtm1Mom homozygotes

|
• in adoptive transfer experiments, small intestine intraepithelial lymphocytes exhibit increased migration into intestinal epithelial compared to wild-type intestinal lymphocytes
• however, the cytotoxic function and proliferation rates of small intestine intraepithelial lymphocytes are normal
|
• IgA levels in the saliva are lower than in wild-type mice and following exposure to PstS-1 are decreased compared to in similarly treated wild-type mice
• however, IgA levels in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid following exposure to PstS-1 are normal
|
• in the serum compared to in wild-type mice
(J:97824)
• serum IgA levels are increased compared to in wild-type mice

• following exposure to Mycobacterium bovis bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG), mice exhibit decreased lung production of IFN-gamma and TNF-alpha compared to similarly treated wild-type mice
|
• following exposure to Mycobacterium bovis bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG), mice exhibit decreased lung production of IFN-gamma and TNF-alpha compared to similarly treated wild-type mice
|
• following exposure to Mycobacterium bovis bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG), mice exhibit increased bacterial lung load and decreased lung production of IFN-gamma and TNF-alpha compared to wild-type mice
• 3 weeks following infection with M. tuberculosis, mice exhibit increased bacterial load with reduced macrophage and lymphocyte infiltrates and more necrosis and karyorrhexis among neutrophils compared to in similarly treated wild-type mice
• 8 weeks following infection with M. tuberculosis, mice exhibit a greater increase in granulomatous infiltration compared to similarly treated wild-type mice
• however, by 8 weeks following infection with M. tuberculosis mice exhibit a normal resistance
