immune system
• thymocytes, more specifically double positive T cells, exhibit increased levels of apoptosis compared to wild-type thymocytes
|
• all of the more mature T cell subsets are decreased compared to in wild-type mice
• mice exhibit fewer CD45.2+ double positive T cells following donor transplant than wild-type mice
• the transition from double positive to single positive is enhanced
• however, emigration of T cells to the spleen is normal
|
• the number of CD44-CD25- DN4 cells is decreased 40% compared to in wild-type mice
• however, the number of DN3 T cells is slightly increased
|
• all of the more mature T cell subsets are decreased compared to in wild-type mice
|
• the thymus contains 50% fewer thymocytes than in wild-type mice
• however, emigration of T cells to the spleen is normal
|
growth/size/body
• mice grow slower than wild-type mice after weaning
|
