• the ratio of mature (CD24lo) to immature (CD24hi) TCRhiCD4+ thymocytes is much lower than in controls indicating a defect in differentiation
• the number of transitional CD4+CD8int thymocytes is lower indicating a defect in positive selection
• peripheral CD4 T cells numbers are reduced by about 75%
• peripheral CD8 T cell numbers are reduced by about a third
• relative percentage of memory T cells is increased likely reflecting lymphopenia-driven population expansion
• CD4 regulatory T cell numbers are reduced in these mice
• the deletion of Vbeta8+ CD4SP thymocytes but not Vbeta8+ CD8SP thymocytes induced by the 'superantigen' staphylococcus enterotoxin B is impaired in these mice
• CD4 and CD8 single-positive thymocytes are reduced by a third to a half compared to controls

• the percentage of DP thymocytes is consistently higher in male mice than in male transgenics on a wild-type background, which suggests that negative selection occurs less efficiently
• higher double positive thymocyte numbers and fewer single-positive thymoyctes in females indicate a defect in positive selection
• double-positive thymocytes are increased in female mice
• CD8 single-positive thymocyte nubmers are reduced in these female mice
