immune system
• the total number of T cells in lymph nodes is smaller than in BALB/c mice
• the number of either CD4+ or CD8+ T cells is decreased compared to in CBA, B6, C3H and BALB/c mice
• the number of T cells in the blood and spleen is increased compared to in wild-type mice
• the number of T cells in the peripheral lymph nodes and Peyer's patches with memory phenotype is increased compared to in wild-type mice
• unlike in wild-type spleens, T cells are found within the red pulp
• unlike in wild-type spleens, few T cells are found within the white pulp
• most Peyer's patches are smaller than in wild-type mice
• T cells are hardly observed in T cell zones but are observed in B cell zones (J:47460)
• low density of T cells in subcortical area (J:47819)
• T cell cellularity within the peripheral lymph nodes is decreased (J:47460)
• the number of lymph node cells is reduced by 10 and 6 times in males and females, respectively, than in CBA and B6 mice (J:15290)
• the amount of T cells in the subcortical area is extremely low
• T cell migration into peripheral lymph nodes, Peyer's patches and the spleen is defective (J:47460)
• however, neutrophil and macrophage recruitment stimulated by thioglycolate is normal (J:47460)
• T cell migration into lymph nodes is defective (J:47819)
