hematopoietic system
N |
• the blood of mutant mice contains normal numbers of CD4+ T cells, CD19+ B cells and CD11c+ dendritic cells
|
• the blood of homozygous mutant mice contains a greatly reduced number of NK1.1+ cells
|
• the bloood of homozygous mutant mice contains a greatly reduced number of CD8+ T cells
|
• natural killer (NK) cells from previously immunized homozygous mutant mice exhibit diminished ability to kill class I MHC-deficient cells in vivo

immune system
N |
• the blood of mutant mice contains normal numbers of CD4+ T cells, CD19+ B cells and CD11c+ dendritic cells
• CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) from previously immunized mice exhibit normal ability to kill antigen-specific target cells in vivo
• a normal tumor necrosis factor (TNF) alpha response is evoked by all toll-like receptor (TLR) ligands tested in peritoneal macrophages from mutant mice
|
• the blood of homozygous mutant mice contains a greatly reduced number of NK1.1+ cells
|
• the bloood of homozygous mutant mice contains a greatly reduced number of CD8+ T cells
|
• natural killer (NK) cells from previously immunized homozygous mutant mice exhibit diminished ability to kill class I MHC-deficient cells in vivo
|
• the TLR4 ligand, lipopolysaccharide (LPS), evokes a reduced type I interferon response in peritoneal macrophages from homozygous mutant mice
• the TLR3 ligand, poly I:C, evokes a reduced type I interferon (IFN) response in peritoneal macrophages isolated from homozygous mutant mice
|
• the TLR4 ligant, lipopolysaccharide (LPS), evokes a reduced type I interferon response in peritoneal macrophages from homozygous mutant mice.
• the TLR3 ligand, poly I:C, evokes a lower than normal type I interferon (IFN) response in peritoneal macrophages isolated from homozygous mutant mice
|
• homozygous mutants exhibit enhanced susceptibility to infection with 2 x 105 PFU of mouse cytomegalovirus (MCMV)
