N normal phenotype
immune system
• 96% of thymocytes are double positive
• the presence of the transgene rescues the block of T cell development that occurs at DN3 in Rag2tm1Fwa homozygotes
• despite the presence of double positive thymocytes, single positive T cells do not develop
• despite the presence of double positive thymocytes, single positive T cells do not develop

hematopoietic system
• 96% of thymocytes are double positive
• the presence of the transgene rescues the block of T cell development that occurs at DN3 in Rag2tm1Fwa homozygotes

phenotype observed in females

N normal phenotype
mortality/aging
• about half of the mice are dead at 90 days of age from thymic lymphomas
• less than 20% of the mice live past 240 days

neoplasm
• most mice die of thymic lymphomas
• lymphomas contain clonal rearrangements in the T cell receptor genes
• all tumors are lymphoblastic lymphomas with variable expression of the CD4 and CD8 genes

immune system
• number of thymocytes is decreased by more than 20% compared to wild-type mice despite the thymus having similar weight as in wild-type
• is often observed in necropsy due to lymphomas
• there is a five-fold increase in the percentage of double negative thymocytes found in the thymus
• double negative thymocytes progress rapidly through the DN3 to DN4 stage
• the percentage of single positive thymocytes is increased in these mice

cellular
• thymocyte cell size is significantly increased in these mice
• thymocytes express high levels of cyclin D2, D3,and E and promote progression through G1

hematopoietic system
• number of thymocytes is decreased by more than 20% compared to wild-type mice despite the thymus having similar weight as in wild-type
• is often observed in necropsy due to lymphomas
• there is a five-fold increase in the percentage of double negative thymocytes found in the thymus
• double negative thymocytes progress rapidly through the DN3 to DN4 stage
• the percentage of single positive thymocytes is increased in these mice

endocrine/exocrine glands
• number of thymocytes is decreased by more than 20% compared to wild-type mice despite the thymus having similar weight as in wild-type
• most mice die of thymic lymphomas
• lymphomas contain clonal rearrangements in the T cell receptor genes
• all tumors are lymphoblastic lymphomas with variable expression of the CD4 and CD8 genes

growth/size/body
• is often observed in necropsy due to lymphomas
