digestive/alimentary system

abnormal intestinal goblet cell morphology ( J:169462 )

• the number of goblet cells per villi in the duodenum, jejunum, and ileum is increased compared with wild-type mice

• however, aged mice exhibit normal numbers of goblet cells

increased Paneth cell number ( J:169462 )

• the number of Paneth cells per villi in the duodenum, jejunum, and ileum is increased compared with wild-type mice

abnormal ileum morphology ( J:169462 )

• ileum exhibit increased lamina propria mononuclear cell numbers compared to in wild-type mice

blunted small intestinal villi ( J:169462 )

• villi are blunted at 2 and 10 months

intestinal fibrosis ( J:169462 )

• in the colonic mucosa and submucosa by 10 months

small intestinal inflammation ( J:169462 )

• mild, detected by myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity

• however, MPO activity in the colon is normal

skeleton

hemarthrosis ( J:169462 )

abnormal joint morphology ( J:169462 )

• 2 of 58 mice develop arthropathy unlike wild-type mice

joint swelling ( J:169462 )

• mice develop swollen joints that cause difficulty moving compared with wild-type mice

immune system

small intestinal inflammation ( J:169462 )

• mild, detected by myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity

• however, MPO activity in the colon is normal

increased interferon-gamma secretion ( J:169462 )

• at 10 months, mice exhibit a 2-fold increase in CD4+ IFN-gamma+ cells in mesenteric lymph nodes compared with wild-type mice

• IFN-gamma production in the mesenteric lymph node compared to in wild-type mice

integument

skin lesions ( J:169462 )

• 1 of 58 mice develop erythematous ulcerated skin lesions compared with 1 of 155 wild-type mice

cardiovascular system

hemarthrosis ( J:169462 )

endocrine/exocrine glands

increased Paneth cell number ( J:169462 )

• the number of Paneth cells per villi in the duodenum, jejunum, and ileum is increased compared with wild-type mice

cellular

abnormal intestinal goblet cell morphology ( J:169462 )

• the number of goblet cells per villi in the duodenum, jejunum, and ileum is increased compared with wild-type mice

• however, aged mice exhibit normal numbers of goblet cells

homeostasis/metabolism

joint swelling ( J:169462 )

• mice develop swollen joints that cause difficulty moving compared with wild-type mice
