immune system
abnormal CD4-positive, alpha-beta T cell physiology ( J:133262 )
• CD4+ T cells produce much less IL-2 and interferon-gamma after stimulation with phorbol ester PMA and ionomycin or with anti-CD3 and anti-CD28 antibodies compared to wild-type cells
• however, calcium flux within CD4+ T cells are relatively normal
abnormal T-helper 1 physiology ( J:133262 )
• T helper type 1 and 2 cells produce less IL-2, IL-4 and interferon-gamma compared to wild-type cells
abnormal T-helper 2 physiology ( J:133262 )

abnormal B cell differentiation ( J:133262 )
• mice produce more IgE+ B cells than wild-type mice
abnormal T cell differentiation ( J:133262 )
• mice produce more memory or effector T cells than wild-type mice
• as determined by bone marrow transplant assays, mice exhibit a cell-intrinsic defect in regulatory T cell development
abnormal granulocyte morphology ( J:133262 )
• mice produce more CD11b+ IL-5R+ eosinophils or basophils than wild-type mice
decreased regulatory T cell number ( J:133262 )
• at 5 to 6 weeks of age, mice exhibit fewer regulatory T cells in the thymus, spleen and lymph nodes compared to wild-type mice due to a cell-intrinsic defect in regulatory T cell development
