N
• T and B cell development exhibit normal development
• mice exhibit normal numbers of neutrophils, monocytes, NK cells, red blood cells and platelets
• mice exhibit normal development of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis
• due to increased B cells
• in the spleen
• in the periphery
• after immunization with NP-CGG
• with fewer B cells after immunization with NP-CGG
• however, wild-type bone marrows transferred into irradiated recipient mice rescues germinal center development
• after immunization with NP-CGG, mice exhibit increased extrafollicular B cell differentiation compared with wild-type mice
• decreased migration in response to chemokines
• reduced antibody secreting cells after immunization with NP-CGG
• in unimmunized mice
• prior to and after immunization with NP-CGG
