Lupus-like autoimmune disease in Lyntm1Sor/Lyntm1Sor and Lyntm1.1Calo/Lyntm1.1Calo Top2aGt(PST14568)Mfgc/0 mice

immune system
• B cells form mice 7- to 11- weeks of age hyperproliferate in response to anti-IgM stimulation and LPS
• mice develop splenomegaly with age due to myeloid hyperplasia
• increase in the number of CD19lo/- CD138hi plasma cells in the spleen
• reduced numbers of T1 and T2 B cells are found in the spleen
• peripheral B cell numbers are reduced by almost 10-fold
• reduced by about 10-fold in the spleen
• reduced numbers in the spleen
• mice have elevated levels of IgA in sera
• mice have elevated levels of IgM in sera
• fibrillar beta-amyloid stimulated reactive oxygen species production is reduced 70% compared to in wild-type cells
• however, response to zymosan and macrophage recruitment are normal
• fibrillar beta-amyloid stimulated microglial recruitment is reduced 3-fold compared to in wild-type mice
• increased levels of granulocyte and granulocyte macrophage colony stimulating factors at 6 months of age
• high levels of circulating B-cell activating factor
• increased levels of a number of chemokines at 6 months of age
• fibrillar beta-amyloid stimulated MCP-1 production in macrophages is reduced by 50% compared to in wild-type mice
• however, macrophage production of MCP-1 in response to LPS or reverse beta-amyloid is normal
• splenic dendritic cells produce more proinflammatory cytokines and more chemokines
• CD11chi DCs are hyperresponsive to cytokine stimulation
• high levels of autoreactive antibodies in the serum
• serum levels of anti-dsDNA antibodies increase with age with high levels occurring by 12 months of age
• levels of anti-dsDNA antibodies are below those of age-matched Lyn null homozygotes
• IgG depositions in the liver occur in older mice though no associated pathology is observed
• mice develop severe glomerulonephritis around 8 months of age (J:146161)
• disease includes enlarged glomeruli, glomerular, hypercellularity, lobularity and sclerosis, mesangial interposition in peripheral capillary loops, and strong IgG deposition in the glomeruli (J:146161)
• glomerulonephritis without interstitial inflammation is seen by 8-10 months of age (J:200745)

nervous system

renal/urinary system

hematopoietic system
