immune system
• demonstrated defective apoptotic cell clearance (16% of macrophages phagocytosed compared to more than 25% in wildtype), however did not develop spontaneous autoimmunity
(J:97686)
• 38% decrease in percentage of phagocytic cells
(J:97686)
• showed a 40% reduction in bacterial phagocytosis by resident peritoneal macrophages
(J:98124)
|
• more than 60% decrease in germinal center B cell numbers
|
• increased number of peritoneal B1 cells, however no lymphoproliferation occurred
|
• double homozygous mutants rendered neutropenic by cyclophosphamide (CY) injection had an 80% decrease in resident peritoneal macrophages
|
• double homozygous mutants rendered neutropenic by cyclophosphamide (CY) injection had an 80% decrease in circulating monocytes
|
• serum IL-6 levels were reduced at 2 hours after S. aureus inoculation, however levels were increased 8-fold at 24 hours after inoculation compared to wildtype
|
• serum TNF-alpha levels were reduced at 2 hours after S. aureus inoculation, however levels were increased 15-fold at 24 hours after inoculation compared to wildtype
|
• 100% of double mutants died 48 hours after S. aureus infection compared to 45% of wildtype
• statistically significant higher bacterial loads were found in the kidney, spleen, liver and blood compared with wildtype at 24 hours after S. aureus inoculation
• double homozygous mutants rendered neutropenic by cyclophosphamide (CY) injection exhibited increased susceptibility to bacterial infection with 21/29 developing abscesses in various organs compared to 3/15 of wildtype
