mortality/aging
• mice die spontaneously at 12 weeks of age

immune system
• most B cells in the spleen undergo class switching unlike in wild-type cells
• when bone marrow cells are transplanted into wild-type mice they accumulate plasma cells unlike when wild-type cells are transplanted
• when bone marrow cells are transplanted into wild-type mice they accumulate CD44highCD62L- T cells unlike when wild-type cells are transplanted
• hyperimmunoglobulinemia
• mice exhibit lymphadenopathy
• when bone marrow cells are transplanted into wild-type mice they develop lymphadenopathy unlike when wild-type cells are transplanted
• in anti-CD3 antibodies-stimulated spleen cells
• macrophages stimulated with TLR ligands exhibit increased IL12b production compared to wild-type cells
• macrophages stimulated with TLR ligands exhibit increased IL6 production compared to wild-type cells
• mice exhibit infiltration of plasma cells in the lungs, paraepithelium of the bile duct, and pancreas unlike in wild-type mice
• plasma cells accumulate in the lymph nodes and spleens unlike in wild-type mice
• however, intestine and joints exhibit no inflammatory changes
• in the lymph nodes leading to the generation of giant cells with fused macrophages unlike in wild-type mice

cellular
• the half-life of IL6 in stimulated macrophages is increased compared to in wild-type mice

• severe
• the number of Ter119+ erythroblast population in the spleen is higher than in wild-type mice
• when bone marrow cells are transplanted into wild-type mice they accumulate plasma cells unlike when wild-type cells are transplanted
• when bone marrow cells are transplanted into wild-type mice they accumulate CD44highCD62L- T cells unlike when wild-type cells are transplanted
• hyperimmunoglobulinemia
