immune system
• mitral valve inflammation begins at 3 weeks of age and by 8 weeks, accumulation of inflammatory cells and interstitial thickening is obvious indicating fibroinflammatory mitral valve disease
• mononuclear phagocytes (macrophages and monocytes) constitute the vast majority of accumulated leukocytes
• frequency of TNF- and IL-6-producing phagocytes in inflamed mitral valve tissue is elevated, indicating an enrichment of cytokine-producing phagocytes within the inflamed mitral valves
• antibody blockade of either TNF or IL-6 beginning at the onset of mitral valve inflammation reduces mitral valve fibrosis and thickening
• rheumatoid arthritis occurs with disease onset transpiring between 25 and 35 days of age (J:36815)
• arthritis occurrence is established by joint inspection and measure of ankle thickness, and histological confirmation in several mice (J:36815)

cardiovascular system
• mitral valve hydroxyproline content is elevated
• by 8 weeks of age, mitral valves are fibrotic and thickened
• TNFR2 neutralization with a monoclonal antibody exacerbates mitral valve fibrosis and thickening
• blockade of either VLA-4 or VCAM-1 with monoclonal antibodies attenuates valve fibrosis and thickening

immune system
• macrophage cells make up a large number of cells found in inflamed joints
• splenomegaly is often observed
• clonal deletion is evident in the thymus of neonatal mice with reduced numbers of total cells and aberrant percentages of single-positive populations
• single-positive populations normalize by 4 weeks of age though total cell numbers are still reduced
• clonal deletion affects T cell populations in the periphery with a paucity of single-positive T cells in young mice and chronically reduced CD4+ population in adults
• spleen and lymph node B cell numbers are increased 1.75-fold in mice suffering from arthritis
• CD4+ T cells are virtually absent in the spleens of mice under 2 weeks of age
• CD4+ T cell numbers are reduced by 3.1-fold in the spleens of adult mice
• CD8 +T cells numbers are reduced in mice under 3 weeks of age
• neutrophils make up a large number of cells found in inflamed joints
• serum IgG1 levels are dramatically increased
• a greater proportion of T cells express late activation markers (CD44hi CD62Llo, CD45RBlo) than in transgene negative controls
• T cells expressing the transgenic TCR proliferate in response to antigen presenting cells expressing Class II MHC from a H2g7 locus in the absence of any antigen
• Background Sensitivity: transgenic T cells from mice on a NOD background have lower levels of T cell receptor expressed
• Background Sensitivity: transgenic T cells from mice on a NOD background have a severe reduction in response to its cognate antigen (RNAse peptide) presented by Ak than do transgenic T cells from a C57BL/6 background
• hybridomas created from these T cells respond normally to antigen suggesting a cell intrinsic anergy
• Background Sensitivity: transgenic mice crossed to a NOD background develop rheumatoid arthritis
• distal paws become red and swollen
• all transgenic mice have significantly swollen ankles by 30 days of age with the degree of swelling symmetrical on either limb
• as mice age hyperextension of the ankle, valgus deviation of the knee and hyperpronation of the toes occur
• arthritis occurs in almost all joints with the exception of hip joints
• arthritis starts as fibrinoid material and a few cells are found in the articular cavity; edema sets in under the synovial lining, accompanied by neovascularithezation and some infiltration of inflammatory cells
• after a few weeks, disease is marked by extensive synovitis, affecting all areas of the joint with massive infiltration of inflammatory cells and beginnings of fibrosis
• after several months, the inflammation recedes leaving massive fibrosis, very little cartilage, and irregular shaped bone
• occurs as part of arthritis disease process
• immunoglobulin deposits occur along the peritubular basal membranes in the cortex and medulla
• immunoglobulin deposits are detected in the glomeruli

limbs/digits/tail
• bones are eroded from arthritis with anarchic reconstruction occurring afterwards
• rheumatoid arthritis leads to hyperpronation of the toes
• bones are eroded from arthritis with anarchic reconstruction occurring afterwards
