immune system
• more leukocytes adhere to the endothelium of mesenteric venules than in wild-type
|
• exhibit more leukocytes rolling and leukocytes roll at a slower velocity in mesenteric venules than wild-type
|
• exposure to endotoxin results in augmented proinflammatory cytokine levels
|
• basal levels of IL-6 are about 2-fold higher
|
• exposure to endotoxin (LPS) results in a much greater increase in serum IL-6 than in wild-type
|
• basal levels of TNF-alpha are about 2-fold higher
• exposure to endotoxin (LPS) results in 5-fold higher levels of serum TNF-alpha than in wild-type
|
• exposure to endotoxin (LPS) results in reduced induction of IL-10
|
• develop low-grade inflammation
|
cardiovascular system
N |
• exhibit normal blood pressure under basal conditions and after adenosine-induced vasodilation
