immune system
• there is almost a 2-fold increase in the number of follicular B cells found in the spleen
|
• there are greatly increased numbers of marginal zone B cells in both spleen and lymph nodes
• surface expression of CD21 on these cells is enhanced
|
• 50% of B cells remain viable in unsupplemented culture for up to 10 days compared to no survival of wild-type cells
