hematopoietic system
• fewer Th17 T cells are derived from in vitro differentiation of nave CD4 T cells compared to controls under conditions of weak TCR signaling
|
• splenocyte number is decreased by about 20%
|
• mice generate less antigen-specific IgG2a to T cell-dependent antigens compared to controls

immune system
• fewer Th17 T cells are derived from in vitro differentiation of nave CD4 T cells compared to controls under conditions of weak TCR signaling
|
• splenocyte number is decreased by about 20%
|
• mice generate less antigen-specific IgG2a to T cell-dependent antigens compared to controls
|
• splenocytes generate less IFN-gamma than controls after in vitro stimulation with antigen
|
• CD4 T cells stimulated in vitro produce much less IL-17 than controls
• restimulated splenocytes isolated from mice with experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) produce less IL-17 than controls
|
• CD4 T cells stimulated in vitro produce less IL-4 than controls
|
• mice develop less severe EAE after MOG induction as measured by clinical score and weight loss
• less immune cells invade the spinal cord during the disease course of EAE compared to controls
