immune system
• IgMlowIgD- CD25+ transitional B cells have increased rates of apoptosis
• B cells by largely fail to progress to the IgM+IgD+ CD25- transitional B cell stage
|
• pro-B cell numbers are increased in the bone marrow
|
• B cell development is largely arrested at the pre-BI stage due to a lack of positive selection for in-frame IgH chains
|
• there is a 70-fold reduction in the number of recirculating mature B cells found in the bone marrow
• the number of mature B cells found in the spleen is reduced by about 50-fold
|
• mice have a 25% decrease in IgM-B220+CD43-CD25+ pre-Bcells in the bone marrow
|
• production of antibodies to T cell dependent antigens is impaired
