Small size and reduced total bone mineral density in Irak3tm1Flv/Irak3tm1Flv mice

immune system
• increased numbers of polymorphonuclear cells found in Peyer's patches
• increased numbers of osteoclasts per unit area of bone surface
• shows hemorrhaging
• grossly enlarged after infection with gram negative bacteria
• increased amounts of Il12p40 produced by macrophage when challenged by either gram negative or gram positive bacteria
• increased amounts produced by macrophage when challenged by either gram negative or gram positive bacteria
• increased amounts produced by macrophage when challenged by gram negative bacteria
• decreased tolerance to endotoxin
• enhanced innate immunity
• bacterial load not greatly increased in spleens of mice with bacterial infections
• bone marrow macrophage have a reduced proliferation rate but fuse more rapidly
• osteoclasts are generated more rapidly and have more prolonged life spans

skeleton
