immune system

decreased double-positive T cell number ( J:78309 )

• there is a 32-fold reduction in the number of double positive T cells in the thymus

abnormal CD4-positive, alpha beta T cell morphology ( J:78309 )

• there is reduced surface expression of T cell receptor components compared to mice transgenic for just the TCR transgene

• T cells also express surface markers indicative of recently being activated (high CD44, low CD45RB)

decreased CD4-positive, alpha-beta T cell number ( J:78309 )

• CD 4 T cell numbers in the lymph nodes are reduced by almost three-quarters

• the number of lymph node CD4 T cells bearing a transgenic TCR is reduced 2- to 4- fold compared to mice transgenic just for the TCR

abnormal CD4-positive, alpha-beta T cell physiology ( J:78309 )

• CD4 T cells have a greatly reduced capability to activate and help B cell antibody production in vivo

abnormal T cell activation ( J:78309 )

• vitro TCR stimulation leads to greatly reduced expression of CD69 compared to T cells from mice transgenic for just the TCR

abnormal T cell proliferation ( J:78309 )

• CD4 T cells do not proliferate to hen egg lysozyme antigen compared to CD4 T cells from mice carrying just the TCR transgene
