homeostasis/metabolism
N
• in presence of doxycycline, strepzotocin-treated mice transplanted with beta cells isolated from insulinomas from double-transgenic mice display euglycemia within one day of transplantation; blood glucose levels remained in euglycemic range for >6 weeks after doxycycline withdrawal
• mice receiving doxycycline in drinking water to induce transgene expression develop hypoglycemia by 3-4 months of age; mutants not treated with doxycycline remain euglycemic and have normal islet morphology

neoplasm
• hypoglycemic mice are observed to have multiple insulinomas in pancreas

endocrine/exocrine glands
• hypoglycemic mice are observed to have multiple insulinomas in pancreas
