immune system
• mice have 2-fold more mature single-positive CD8 thymocytes than wild-type mice and over a 1000-fold more than fold in B2mtm1Jae homozygote controls
• in the periphery, CD8+ T cells make up 2% of the lymph node population compared to less than 0.1% for B2mtm1Jae homozygote controls
|
• lymph node cellularity is 25% that of controls, with a normal ratio between CD4+ and CD8+ T cells
