neoplasm
N |
• no significant increase in the incidence of somatic tumors up to 2 years of age
|
hematopoietic system
• reduced T-cell activation in response to receptor stimulation
• proliferation was normal when stimulation bypassed early steps in activation
• IL-2 reverses proliferation defects
• effect probably due in part to reduced antagonism of TGF-beta signaling
|
• after 6 months of age when on a mixed background
|
immune system
• reduced T-cell activation in response to receptor stimulation
• proliferation was normal when stimulation bypassed early steps in activation
• IL-2 reverses proliferation defects
• effect probably due in part to reduced antagonism of TGF-beta signaling
|
• T-cell subpopulations from thymus and spleen are unchanged from wild-type
|
• after 6 months of age when on a mixed background
