N normal phenotype
growth/size/body
• an enlarged heart is observed in postmortem analysis
• an enlarged gall bladder is observed in postmortem analysis
• transgenic mice are noticeably smaller than wild-type controls
• at P14-P24, body weight is significantly lower than in wild-type controls
• transgenic mice fail to thrive
• when sub-lethally irradiated B6SJL mice (CD45.1) are reconstituted with 100% transgenic (CD45.2) bone marrow (BM) cells, BM chimeras fail to gain weight in the 6 weeks after BM cell reconstitution

reproductive system
• mice do not breed

endocrine/exocrine glands
• a small thymus is observed in postmortem analysis
• an enlarged gall bladder is observed in postmortem analysis

immune system
• chimeras reconstituted with 100% transgenic BM cells show augmented neutrophil development with an unexpected population of Ly6GintSiglecFlo cells detected in the bone marrow
• however, transgenic mice show no defects in myeloid development, as determined by colony forming unit analysis
• a small thymus is observed in postmortem analysis
• chimeras reconstituted with 100% transgenic (CD45.2) bone marrow (BM) cells for at least 6 weeks exhibit enhanced neutrophil infiltration to peripheral tissues with a significant increase in total lung and splenic neutrophil number relative to controls reconstituted with 100% C57BL/6 (CD45.2) BM cells
• however, chimeras reconstituted with transgenic BM cells show no major changes in the total number of eosinophils and CD4+ T cells in lung and spleen or CD4+ T cells and group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) in mesenteric lymph nodes
• when sub-lethally irradiated B6SJL mice (CD45.1) are reconstituted with 100% transgenic (CD45.2) BM cells for at least 6 weeks, BM chimeras exhibit lung inflammation with increased neutrophil infiltration relative to controls reconstituted with 100% C57BL/6 (CD45.2) BM cells

hematopoietic system
• chimeras reconstituted with 100% transgenic BM cells show augmented neutrophil development with an unexpected population of Ly6GintSiglecFlo cells detected in the bone marrow
• however, transgenic mice show no defects in myeloid development, as determined by colony forming unit analysis
• a small thymus is observed in postmortem analysis
• chimeras reconstituted with 100% transgenic (CD45.2) bone marrow (BM) cells for at least 6 weeks exhibit enhanced neutrophil infiltration to peripheral tissues with a significant increase in total lung and splenic neutrophil number relative to controls reconstituted with 100% C57BL/6 (CD45.2) BM cells
• however, chimeras reconstituted with transgenic BM cells show no major changes in the total number of eosinophils and CD4+ T cells in lung and spleen or CD4+ T cells and group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) in mesenteric lymph nodes

cardiovascular system
• an enlarged heart is observed in postmortem analysis

liver/biliary system
• an enlarged gall bladder is observed in postmortem analysis

respiratory system
• when sub-lethally irradiated B6SJL mice (CD45.1) are reconstituted with 100% transgenic (CD45.2) BM cells for at least 6 weeks, BM chimeras exhibit lung inflammation with increased neutrophil infiltration relative to controls reconstituted with 100% C57BL/6 (CD45.2) BM cells

cellular
• chimeras reconstituted with 100% transgenic BM cells show augmented neutrophil development with an unexpected population of Ly6GintSiglecFlo cells detected in the bone marrow
• however, transgenic mice show no defects in myeloid development, as determined by colony forming unit analysis
