immune system
• in the spleen and lymph nodes
|
• increase in the proportion of CD19+ CD138hi plasma cells
|
• B cell lymphopenia
|
• decrease in the percentage and absolute number of bone marrow B220 hi mature recirculating B cells
• decrease in the proportion and number of CD19+ B cells in the spleen
|
• decrease in absolute number but not the proportion of follicular B cells
|
• decrease in the percentage and absolute number of marginal zone B cells
• the ring of B220+ CD1d+ MZ B cells that normally surrounds MOMA-expressing metallophilic macrophages is almost absent
|
• virtual abrogation of IgM and IgG pneumococcus polysaccharide specific Ab responses
• abrogation of the early response to immunization with UV inactivated vesicular stomatitis virus
|
• elevated total serum levels and spontaneous production of IgM Abs specific for trinitrophenyl and phosphocholine
|
renal/urinary system
• modest degree of glomerular damage
|
