mortality/aging
• ~50% of homozygotes die within 4.4 months with only ~5.9% surviving to 10 months as result of development of lymphomas
|
cardiovascular system
• extensive tumor infiltrates are found in the heart in moribund mice
|
digestive/alimentary system
• extensive tumor infiltrates are seen in salivary glands in moribund mice
|
endocrine/exocrine glands
• extensive tumor infiltrates are seen in salivary glands in moribund mice
|
• complete disruption of normal architecture by monomorphic population of medium-sized lymphoid cells
• tumor cells are found outside the capsule
|
• majority of moribund mice have a huge thymus
|
• cellularity is reduced to ~33% of wild-type level
|
• most tumor cells are CD4+CD8+ with varying contribution by CD8 single positive cells
• in 20% of moribund mice, lymphoma cells in bone marrow and peripheral lymphoid organs consist of CD8 single positive T cells while lymphoma cells in thymus are primarily double positive T cells
|

|
• under non-competitive conditions, pro-B cell compartment is increased 2-fold relative to wild-type mice
• B cell numbers normalize at later developmental stages
|
• T-cell development is partially blocked at the earliest pro-T cell stage
|
• absolute numbers are lower than in heterozygotes and significantly lower than in wild-type
|
• absolute numbers are lower than in heterozygotes and significantly lower than in wild-type
