immune system
abnormal mast cell physiology ( J:47138 )
• degranulation of bone marrow mast cells (BMMC) induced by antigen-receptor bound IgE crosslinking is 3- to 5-fold reduced compared to those in Ms4a2-heterozygous transgenic mice
decreased susceptibility to type I hypersensitivity reaction ( J:47138 )
• mice show a weaker response (temperature drop) in a model of anaphlaxis (injections of IgE every 12 hours for 36 hours, then antigenic challenge)
abnormal cytokine secretion ( J:47138 )
• Il-6 production in stimulated BMMCs is reduced compared to Ms4a2-heterozygous transgenic mice

hematopoietic system
abnormal mast cell physiology ( J:47138 )
• degranulation of bone marrow mast cells (BMMC) induced by antigen-receptor bound IgE crosslinking is 3- to 5-fold reduced compared to those in Ms4a2-heterozygous transgenic mice
