mortality/aging
• 16% of heterozygotes die within 1 year, due to lymphomas

immune system
• complete disruption of normal architecture by monomorphic population of medium-sized lymphoid cells
• tumor cells are found outside the capsule
• majority of moribund mice have a huge thymus
• cellularity is reduced to ~60% of wild-type level
• most tumor cells are CD4+CD8+ with varying contribution by CD8 single positive cells
• under non-competitive conditions, pro-B cell compartment is increased 2-fold relative to wild-type mice
• B cell numbers normalize at later developmental stages
• T-cell development is partially blocked at the earliest pro-T cell stage
• absolute numbers are significantly lower than in wild-type
• absolute numbers are significantly lower than in wild-type
• complete disruption of normal architecture by monomorphic population of medium-sized lymphoid cells
• all diseased mice show splenomegaly
• complete disruption of normal architecture by monomorphic population of medium-sized lymphoid cells
• tumor cells are found outside the capsule
