hematopoietic system
• T cells fail to proliferate in response to either anti-CD4 or ConA stimulation
|
• the total cell number in the thymus is 20-5--fold less than in wild-type mice
|
• some homozygotes have enlarged spleens
|
• mutant B cells fail to progress to the B220+ stage
|
• in homozygotes with enlarged spleens more CD4+ cells are found in the spleen and lymph nodes than exit the thymus
|
• the number of CD8+ T cells in the lymph nodes and spleen is decreased
|
immune system
• T cells fail to proliferate in response to either anti-CD4 or ConA stimulation
|
• the total cell number in the thymus is 20-5--fold less than in wild-type mice
|
• some homozygotes have enlarged spleens
|
• mutant B cells fail to progress to the B220+ stage
|
• in homozygotes with enlarged spleens more CD4+ cells are found in the spleen and lymph nodes than exit the thymus
|
• the number of CD8+ T cells in the lymph nodes and spleen is decreased
|
• the mesenteric lymph nodes are to 1/3 the size of wild-type
