immune system
• unlike wild-type cells, cytokine-activated natural killer cells fail to kill YAC-1 or BaF/3-Rae1gamma cells
• unlike wild-type cells, NKG2D-stimulated natural killer (NK) cells fail to produce IFN-gamma
• however, NK cells produce large amounts of IFN-gamma when exposed to YAC-1 cells

hematopoietic system
• unlike wild-type cells, cytokine-activated natural killer cells fail to kill YAC-1 or BaF/3-Rae1gamma cells

immune system
• spleen cellularity is increased by about 50% compared to controls
• B cell development is partially blocked at an early transition stage but not to the degree that Blnk null homozygotes are
• evidence includes a lower number of peripheral B cells, an increase percentage of B220+ IgL- cells and a 10-fold increase in the number of marrow cells expressing pre-BCR
• there is an increase in B220+ IgL- cells in the bone marrow
• NK cells exhibit partially reduced conjugation with RMA-S cells compared with wild-type cells
• decreased killing of hematopoietic cells RMA-S and YAC-1 cells

mortality/aging
• many mice have perinatal deaths due to a bleeding disorder associated with PLCgamma-2 deficiency
• at weaning, litters from double heterozygote parents only yielded 1 out of 40 pups that were double homozygotes

immune system
• 40% of B cells are dead after 2 hours in culture with 60% after 4 hours and 80% dead after six hours
• B cell lineage cells are reduced 3- to 5-fold compared to mice null homozygotes for just one of the alleles
• splenic B cell numbers are reduced to 4.1% of lymphocytes
• spleen cellularity is about one half of that in wild-type mice
