homeostasis/metabolism
• in fed or fasted mice on a standard diet
• in mice fed a standard diet
• in mice fed a standard diet
• in mice fed a high-fat diet
• in fasted and fed mice on a high-fat diet
• in mice fed a standard or high-fat diet
• in mice fed a high-fat diet
• whether fed a standard or high-fat diet, intracerebroventricular insulin treatment reduces food intake, triggers weight loss, and improves hypothalamic insulin action unlike in similarly treated wild-type mice
• mice fed a high fat diet exhibit improved performance in an insulin tolerance test compared with wild-type mice
• in mice fed a high-fat diet
• in mice fed a high-fat diet

liver/biliary system
• in mice fed a high-fat diet
• in mice fed a high-fat diet
• mice fed a high-fat diet exhibit reduced hepatic triglyceride levels compared with similarly treated wild-type mice

growth/size/body
• beginning at 4 weeks, mice fed a standard or high-fat diet exhibit decreased body weight compared with wild-type mice
• however, reduced body weight in response to leptin treatment is normal
• following intracerebroventricular insulin treatment whether fed a standard or high-fat diet
• whether fed a standard or high-fat diet, mice exhibit reduced naso-anal length compared with similarly treated wild-type mice
• mice fed a high-fat diet fail to exhibit as much of an increase in naso-anal length as in wild-type mice

behavior/neurological
• following intracerebroventricular insulin treatment whether fed a standard or high-fat diet
• however, decreased food intake induced by leptin treatment is normal
