hematopoietic system
• when Polm-deficient mice are immunized with a chicken gammaglobulin conjugate, after 15 days spleens show a 2-2.3 fold increase centroblasts in terms of absolute numbers and as a percentage of total B cells compared to wild-type; as early as 5 days post-immunization, there is a 2-fold increase in centroblasts compared to wild-type
• in Polm-deficient mice, there is a reduced mumber of highly mutated clones (>10 mutations) in young (12%) and old (5%) compared to wild-type
