hematopoietic system
• severe reduction of mature B cells in lymph nodes, peripheral blood and bone marrow
• severe loss of the IgDhigh IgMlow mature population in spleen
• total number of B220+ (Ptprc) cells reduced 5 fold in spleen
|
• B cell loss in transitional type 2 (IgDhigh IgMhigh) and MZB/transitional type 1 (IgDint IgMhigh) populations
|
• peritoneal B2 cell population reduced
|
• loss of marginal zone B cells in spleen
|
• reduced level of IgG in response to T cell dependent challenge with keyhole limpet hemocyanin and chicken gamma globulin
|
• reduced serum levels of IgG1
