mortality/aging
• die within the first day after birth although born at normal Mendelian ratios
|
skeleton
• reduced primary ossification and delayed appearance of secondary ossification centers
|
• delayed ossification of ribs, metacarpal/metatarsal bones, phalanges, pelvis, sternum, vertebrae
• hypoplastic clavicles, scapulae, calvaria, maxillae, mandibles
|
hematopoietic system
• lower percentage of double positive T cells and absolute numbers reduced 10 fold
• increased levels of CD4 expressing cells
|
• small size
• reduced cellularity
|
• transition from early T-lineage to DN2 stage severely impaired
• DN2 to DN3 transition severely impaired
|
• lower percentage of double positive T cells and absolute numbers reduced 10 fold
|
• increased levels of CD4 expressing T cells but not typical CD4+ cells
|
• 4-5 fold reduction in CD45+ numbers
• 10-20 fold reduction in monocyte/granulocytes
• CD19+ B cells and Ter119 erythrocyte numbers are reduced but proportionally normal
|
