immune system
|
• all B cells express human IgM and high levels of B220
• about 80% of B cells exclusively express human kappa light chain
• only 15% of B cells express endogenous mouse lambda mouse chain
|
|
• productive rearrangement of the VDJ segments of the Tg(IGHyH2)J9.2Jkbv transgene occurs in B cells
• the V gene segments used are widely distributed in the variable region of the transgene with predominant usage similar to what is observed in humans
• J segment usage also resembles usage in human B cells
|
|
• productive rearrangement of the VJ segments of the Tg(IGKyK2)J23.1Jkbv transgene occurs in B cells
• V and J gene segment usage resembles what is observed in human B cells
|
|
• the presence of the two transgenes overcomes the block in B cell development that occurs in Igh-Jtm1Jkbv Igk-Ctm1Jkbv double homozygotes
• mature B cell numbers are 60% of that found in wild-type mice
|
|
• antibodies containing human immunoglobulin chains are present in the sera
• concentrations of human mu and gamma2 heavy chains, and kappa light chains are 700, 600, and 800 micrograms per ml, respectively
• after immunization with antigen, IgG2 levels increase to 2.5 mg per ml
• high affinity human antibodies can be generated by immunizing mice with human antigen
