immune system
enlarged spleen ( J:165267 )
• with expansion of the CD11c+ and CD19+ populations but decrease in dendritic cell and marginal zone B cells
decreased marginal zone B cell number ( J:165267 )
• peripheral to follicles
increased IgG level ( J:165267 )
• as glomerular deposition, but not in the serum
increased IgM level ( J:165267 )
• in the serum and as glomerular deposition
increased circulating interleukin-12 level ( J:165267 )
• in bone marrow-derived dendritic cells, total splenocytes, and splenic dendritic cells stimulated with R848, polyA:U, and any TLR7 ligand tested secrete more IL12b (IL-12p40) than similarly treated wild-type cells
• however, response to pCpG, polyI:C, and LPS is normal and serum level in R848-treated mice is normal
increased interleukin-6 secretion ( J:165267 )
• in bone marrow-derived dendritic cells, total splenocytes, and splenic dendritic cells stimulated with R848, polyA:U, and any TLR7 ligand tested
• however, response to polyI:C and LPS is normal and serum level in R848-treated mice is normal
increased anti-nuclear antigen antibody level ( J:165267 )
• mice exhibit an increase in IgG autoantibodies smRNP, RNP, and dsDNA compared with wild-type mice
glomerulonephritis ( J:165267 )
• mice exhibit increased deposition of IgM, IgG, and C3 in the glomerulus compared with wild-type mice

renal/urinary system
