immune system
• homozygous mutant NK cells fail to degranulate following exposure to YAC-1 tumor cells
• NK cells from homozygous mutants degranulate normally following stimulation with antibodies against Ly49D, NK1.1 or NKp46 receptors or after exposure to interleukin (IL)-12, IL-2 or IL-18
|
• homozygous mutants injected with fluorescently labeled splenocytes exhibit diminished ability to kill TAP-deficient target cells lacking MHC class I molecules
• homozygotes injected with fluorescent splenocytes from C3H/HeN, bearing allogeneic MHC molecules, exhibit normal ability to kill the target cells
|
• homozygous mutant NK cells fail to produce interferon gamma (IFN-gamma) following exposure to YAC-1 tumor cells
• NK cells from homozygous mutants produce normal amounts of interferon (IFN)-gamma following stimulation with antibodies against Ly49D, NK1.1 or NKp46 receptors or after exposure to interleukin (IL)-12, IL-2 or IL-18.
|
• mice homozygous for this mutation have increased susceptibility to infection by mouse cytomegalovirus (MCMV); 100% of mice succumb by day 5 post-infection with 105 pfu of MCMV, a normally sublethal inoculum
