immune system
• 5- to 10-fold higher interferon-gamma levels in serum in response to LPS
• elevated serum IL-12 p70 levels in response to LPS
• peritoneal lavages, but not serum, of homozygotes showed a significant increase in TNF-alpha levels after LPS challenge
• peritoneal excudate cells from both homozygotes and wild-types secreted more TNF-alpha in response to LPS when cultured in serum from mutants than in serum from wild-type
• increased sensitivity to LPS resulted in a higher percentage of homozygotes dying compared to wild-type

homeostasis/metabolism
• 5- to 10-fold higher interferon-gamma levels in serum in response to LPS
• elevated serum IL-12 p70 levels in response to LPS
