mortality/aging
• mutants begin to die around 4 months of age and by 12 months of age, about 83% mutants are dead
|
immune system
• lymph nodes proximal to the submaxillary glands are greatly enlarged
|
• mutants, but not wild-type mice, develop anti-SSA/Ro and anti-SSB/La autoantibodies in response to recombinant SSA/Ro and SSB/La antigens
|
• lymphocyte infiltration in lacrimal, parotid and submaxillary glands; most infiltrates are in the perivascular or periductal areas of the glands
|
• lymphocyte infiltration in parotid glands
|
• lymphocyte infiltration in submandibular glands
|
stomatitis
(
J:138560
)
• mouth inflammation
|
• lymphocyte infiltration in lacrimal glands
• lacrimal glands are infiltrated by B220+ B cells and T cells
|
blepharitis
(
J:138560
)
• some mutants develop skin lesions around the eyes due to excessive scratching of affected eyes
• both males and females exhibit difficulties in maintaining fully opened eyelids beginning around 3 weeks of age due to inflammation
|
• mutants at 8-12 months of age exhibit lymphocyte infiltration in the kidney, including the glomeruli
|
• presence of anti-DNA autoantibodies and IgG complex in glomeruli, indicating development of glomerulonephritis
|
