immune system
• macrophage foam cell formation is significantly reduced after macrophage incubation with oxLDL
• germinal centers are significantly enlarged compared to controls after immunization with TNP-KLH due to decreased apoptosis in the region
• LPS-induced TNF-alpha and IFN-gamma release is reduced in cultured spleen cells, however this is not due to reduced levels or stability of mRNA or impaired secretion but reduced post-transcriptional biosynthesis
• LPS-induced IL-1beta and IL-6 release is reduced in cultured spleen cells due to a reduction in mRNA levels
• serum TNF-alpha levels are reduced by more than 90% following LPS challenge compared to controls
• increased survival after LPS-induced endotoxic shock due to a drastic reduction of Tnf-alpha biosynthesis, not to impaired TNF receptor signaling

cardiovascular system
• following ischemia-reperfusion myocardial injury, homozygotes display a significant reduction in the number of apoptotic cardiomyocytes relative to wild-type mice
• homozygotes display no significant differences in baseline cardiac function relative to wild-type mice
• however, homozygotes are resistant to ischemic reperfusion myocardial injury, with a significantly enhanced post-ischemic recovery of left ventricular function relative to wild-type mice
• following ischemia-reperfusion myocardial injury, homozygotes exhibit a ~20% reduction in myocardial infarct size relative to non-preconditioned wild-type mice

• in response to i.v. injection with 1.5 x 105 CFU/kg virulent L. monocytogenes, only 1 of 7 homozygotes (vs 9 of 10 wild-type controls) survive the 14-day observation period post-infection

• at 72 hrs (but not at 48 hrs) post-infection with 1.5 x 105 CFU/kg virulent L. monocytogenes, homozygotes display a strongly increased bacterial load in spleen and lung relative to wild-type controls, with no differences in total blood leukocyte numbers
