immune system
• proliferative responses to intact protein antigens are reduced in mutants, but immunized mice challenged secondarily with OVA323-339 peptide show similar response to wild-type mice
|
• B cell maturation is defective
|
• higher percentages of immature B cells lacking surface IgD and CD23 expression
|
• dendritic cells show reduced class II surface expression in overnight culture compared to wild-type
|
• spleen cells from mice with an H-2k haplotype background effectively function as stimulators for allogeneic T cells, eliciting strong mixed lymphocyte responses
|
