mortality/aging
• all mice die within 2-4 days after infection with 0.2 pfu of Encephalomyocarditis, while all wild-type mice survive
|
immune system
• the percentages and numbers of cDC (CD11c+CD11b+) are greatly reduced in the spleen
|
• the percentages and numbers of pDC (CD11c+B220+) are greatly reduced in the spleen
|
• cells stimulated with IFN alpha express low levels of MHC class I and ICAM-1 as compared with wildtype
controls
|
• TLR ligand-induced MHC class II is lower on pDC than wild-type although basal levels are not different
• basal level of MHC class II expression is lower on cDC and its inducibility by TLR ligands is almost impaired
|
• all mice die within 2-4 days after infection with 0.2 pfu of Encephalomyocarditis, while all wild-type mice survive
|
hematopoietic system
• the percentages and numbers of cDC (CD11c+CD11b+) are greatly reduced in the spleen
|
• the percentages and numbers of pDC (CD11c+B220+) are greatly reduced in the spleen
