immune system
• increased B cell apoptosis in response to stimulation through BCR
|
• lower proliferative response following cross-linking with anti-IgM or anti-IgM plus anti-CD40 antibodies
• however, LPS response was normal
|
• slight decrease in intermediate pro-B cells (about 32% versus 40% in wild-type)
|
• transitional-2 and mature B cell numbers in the spleen are not affected and the absolute number of B220+ splenocytes is comparable to wild-type
|
• decrease in the frequency and absolute number of transitional-1 splenic B cells
|
• contraction of the peritoneal B1 B-cell population
|
• enlargement of the marginal zone compartment in many follicles, as shown by B220+ cell staining, with increased marginal zone (MZ) B cell numbers within compartments
|
• a modest increase in frequency and cell number of marginal zone splenic B cells
|
• reduction in the levels of IgG1
|
• reduction in the production of IgG3 antibodies in response to TNP-Ficoll immunization
• however, immune responses to TNP-LPS (TI-1 response) or TNP-Ova (T-dependent response) are normal
|
• in response to TNP-Ficoll immunization
|
• MZ B cells are more susceptible to apoptosis and at and enhanced rate than follicular cells in the same compartment
• MZ B cells have a 2.5-fold increase in Casp3 activation
