Influences of the microenvironment on B-cell responses of wasted mice: comparison of Peyer's patches and mesenteric lymph nodes.

Abstract excerpt

Wasted mice bear an autosomal recessive mutation (wst/wst) that gives rise to neurologic abnormalities and immunologic deficiency evident as early as 21 days of age. Features of the immune deficiency include absence of plasma cells at mucosal sites, reduction in weight of thymus and spleen relative to body weight, and low serum levels of some immunoglobulin (Ig) isotypes. In these experiments, we have examined...
