• white blood cell count at age 18 months

|
• progressive anemia, with severe drop in reticulocyte count from 550 days of age, resulting in death of some mice
• impaired erythropoiesis at transition from CD71+ Ter119+ basophilic and early chromatophilic erythroblasts (RII stage) to intermediate-CD71 Ter119+ polychromatophilic (RIII) to low-CD71 Ter119+ orthochromatophilic erythroblasts and enucleated erythrocytes (RIV) at age 18 months
• impaired differentiation at RIIIRIV stage transition with a decrease in quiescence of cells in RI stage population at 22 weeks of age
• development of more severe anemia and delayed reticulocyte response after induction of acute hemolytic stress with phenylhydrazine
• RI stage population (CD71+ Ter119-) significantly increased and RIV stage population (low-CD71 high-Ter119) significantly decreased after induction of acute hemolytic stress with phenylhydrazine
• terminal erythroid differentiation defect
• failure of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) to differentiate after 5 days culture in vitro
|
|
• substantially increased numbers of hypolobulated micro-megakaryocytes at age 18 months
|
|
• significant reduction in protein synthesis according to O-propargyl-puromycin (OP-puro) incorporation assay
|
|
• mild, in peripheral blood smears at age 18 months
|
|
• dysplasia in peripheral blood smears at age 18 months
|
|
• diffuse hemosiderin deposits at age 18 months
|
cellular
|
• significantly shorter telomeres in bone marrow cells
|
|
• significantly smaller percentage of bone marrow long-term hematopoietic stem cells (LT-HSCs) in G0 phase
• significantly higher percentage of LT-HSCs in G1 and S-G2-M phases
|
|
• in RIII (intermediate-CD71 Ter119+) erythroblasts
|
|
• significant reduction in protein synthesis in bone marrow according to O-propargyl-puromycin (OP-puro) incorporation assay
|
skeleton
|
• significantly increased frequency of long-term hematopoietic stem cells (LT-HSCs; lineage-low c-Kit+ Sca1+ CD48- CD150+) and multipotent progenitor cells (MPPs; lineage-low c-Kit+ Sca1+ CD48+ CD150-) in bone marrow at age 18 months
• diffuse hemosiderin deposits at age 18 months
• slightly decreased cellularity at age 18 months
• substantially increased numbers of hypolobulated micro-megakaryocytes at age 18 months
