hematopoietic system
• population of lymphoid cells in spleen is severely diminished
• total T cells are reduced 4.8-fold and 16.6-fold in spleen and blood, respectively
|
• only the alpha-beta T cells, not the gamma-delta T cells, are diminished in the spleen and blood
• the alpha-beta T cell percentage is reduced 6.23-fold and cell number is reduced 21-fold in the spleen
• similar reductions in alpha-beta T cells is seen in the thymus and bone marrow
|
• percentage of CD4+ T helper cells is reduced 25.71-fold in the spleen and 58.3-fold in the blood
|
• percentage of CD8+ cytotoxic T cells is reduced 13.73-fold in the spleen and 11.16-fold in the blood

neoplasm
• 14 days after tumor cell implantation, breast tumor cells metastasize to the lungs of mutant mice but not control mice
|
• mice implanted with a syngeneic tumor cell line E0771 in the 4th mammary foot pad show a faster rate of tumor growth and grow larger than in control mice implanted with tumor cells
• twice as many myeloid derived suppressor cells are present in the tumor microenvironment compared to controls
• fewer lymphoid cells are recruited to the tumor microenvironment compared to controls, with reduced CD3+CD19- T cell population due to reduced numbers of CD3+CD19-gamma-deltaTCR- alpha-beta T cells
• the tumor microenvironment shows a reduction in both CD4+ T helper cells and CD8+ cytotoxic T cell populations compared to controls
|
• mice implanted with a syngeneic tumor cell line E0771 in the 4th mammary foot pad show a faster rate of tumor growth than in control mice implanted with tumor cells
