endocrine/exocrine glands
• absence of the adrenal glands is seen with incomplete penetrance; however, the thyroid and pancreas are normal
|
• thymic atrophy is seen in 2 of 14 mutants
|
immune system
• immunization with hen egg lysozyme antigen results in a 4-5-fold increase in proliferating response of peripheral T cells, with mutants showing twice as many T cells in the lymph nodes than controls
|
• thymic atrophy is seen in 2 of 14 mutants
|
• the TCR-Vbeta repertoire is altered in peripheral T cells
|
• 73% of homozygous mice generated autoantibodies against at least one of the organs (liver, testis, pancreas and adrenal gland) tested and 40% of mice contain autoantibodies against two or more of the organs
|
• 50% of mutants exhibit accumulation of lymphocytes in periportal regions
|
liver/biliary system
• 50% of mutants exhibit accumulation of lymphocytes in periportal regions
|
reproductive system
infertility
(

)
• 85% of male or female mutants fail to produce any litters
|
hematopoietic system
• immunization with hen egg lysozyme antigen results in a 4-5-fold increase in proliferating response of peripheral T cells, with mutants showing twice as many T cells in the lymph nodes than controls
|
• thymic atrophy is seen in 2 of 14 mutants
|
• the TCR-Vbeta repertoire is altered in peripheral T cells
|
cellular
• immunization with hen egg lysozyme antigen results in a 4-5-fold increase in proliferating response of peripheral T cells, with mutants showing twice as many T cells in the lymph nodes than controls
