immune system
• DN4 cells show increased apoptosis
• double and single positive T cells show increased apoptosis
|
• DN3 and DN4 proliferation is significantly reduced
|
• proliferation of single positive T cells is increased
|
• DN3 to DN4 transition is defective
|
• elevated in bone marrow and spleen at 2 months but not at 6 months
|
• T cell counts are greatly reduced in bone marrow, spleen, and lymph nodes at 2 months
|
• reduced 60% in thymus
|
• reduced 50% in bone marrow and spleen
• reduced 80% in thymus
|
• reduced 75% in bone marrow and spleen
• reduced 85% in thymus
|
• increased 2 fold in the thymus
• DN3 cells in the thymus are increased 3 fold while DN4 cell numbers are essentially normal
• DN3 cells are slightly elevated in the spleen and significantly elevated in lymph nodes
|
• elevated in bone marrow and spleen at 2 months but not at 6 months
|
• slightly elevated in the spleen and significantly elevated in lymph nodes
|
• about 60% lower cell numbers than controls at 2 months
|
• splenocyte counts are reduced at 2 months of age
|
• splenic monocyte counts are slightly elevated
