homeostasis/metabolism
• mice gain less weight in response to a high fat diet than do wild-type mice
• while cholesterol levels of mice on a high fat diet increase they remain lower than in similarly treated wild-type mice
• while HDL cholesterol levels of mice on a high fat diet increase they remain lower than in similarly treated wild-type mice
• while LDL/lgHDL cholesterol levels of mice on a high fat diet increase they remain lower than in similarly treated wild-type mice
• while VLDL cholesterol levels of mice on a high fat diet increase they remain lower than in similarly treated wild-type mice
• while triglyceride levels of mice on a high fat diet increase they remain lower than in similarly treated wild-type mice
• when fed a high fat diet mice exhibit less diet-induced insulin resistance compared to wild-type mice
• 186 mg/dl compared to 143 mg/dl in wild-type mice on a high fat diet
• while insulin levels increase in response to a high fat diet the increase is less than in wild-type mice
• when fed a high fat diet, adiponectin plasma levels rise early during the diet and continue to climb as they decrease in wild-type mice

endocrine/exocrine glands
• unlike in wild-type mice fed a high fat diet, the number and size of pancreatic beta cells is not increased

growth/size/body
• mice gain less weight in response to a high fat diet than do wild-type mice
