immune system
N |
• blood cell counts are normal and bone marrow derived neutrophils (BMNs) exhibit normal differentiated phenotypes with respect to morphology and phagocytosis of bacteria, zymosan and IgG-latex beads
|
|
• in response to formyl-methionylleucylphenylalanine (fMLP), total accumuation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is reduced by ~19% compared to Ncf4tm1Pth /+ heterozygotes
• intracellular ROS production in response to phagocytosis of IgG-latex beads is reduced by ~42% in primed compared to Ncf4tm1Pth /+ heterozygotes
• intracellular ROS production in response to S. aureus phagocytosis in primed BMN cells is reduced ~60% compared to Ncf4tm1Pth /+ heterozygotes
• initial phase of intracellular ROS formation in response to phorbyl myristate acetate (PMA) is reduced by almost half compared to heterozygous mice
|
|
• mice have significant defect in ability to clear a S. aureus infection in vivo
