behavior/neurological
• mutants exhibit a hunched posture by 4 months of age

weight loss
(
J:166155
)
• mutants exhibit weight loss by 4 months of age
|
• mutants exhibit splenomegaly by 4 months of age
|
hematopoietic system
• mutants exhibit splenomegaly by 4 months of age
|
• CD19+ B cells are larger than B cells from wild-type mice
• B cell neoplasia
|
• reduction in the frequency of B cells in asymptomatic double mutant mice as compared to controls or either single mutant mouse
|
• mutants older than 6 months of age have a 3-fold increase in the percentage of recirculating B cells in the blood, concurrent with onset of disease
|
• tissues containing the expanded B cell population also display an expansion of CD11b+ myeloid cells
|
• spleens of mutants over 6 months of age exhibit an expansion of CD19+ B cells, resulting in enlarged white pulp areas that often infiltrate and compress the red pulp
|
• B cells exhibit enhanced survival
|
• B cells proliferate to the prosurvival factor B cell activating factor (BAFF) while wild-type B cells do not
• B cells show a more robust proliferative response to LPS or anti-CD40 than wild-type mice
|

integument
• mutants exhibit ruffled fur by 4 months of age
|
mortality/aging
• severe morbidity and death occurs in all mutants by 1 year of age
|
neoplasm
• mutants develop marginal zone lymphoma, and less frequently, follicular B cell lymphoma or centroblastic lymphoma
|
• mutants develop spontaneous and lethal mature B cell neoplasms consistent with marginal zone lymphoma
|
• lymphoma infiltrates are seen in nonlymphoid tissues, including liver, lung, heart, and kidney
|
cellular
• B cells proliferate to the prosurvival factor B cell activating factor (BAFF) while wild-type B cells do not
• B cells show a more robust proliferative response to LPS or anti-CD40 than wild-type mice
