homeostasis/metabolism
N
• mice exhibit normal glucose homeostasis
• female mice fed a 0.5% cholesterol diet exhibit decreased circulating total cholesterol, LDL, and cholesterol esters compared with similarly treated wild-type mice
• however, male mice fed a 0.5% cholesterol diet exhibit normal circulating cholesterol levels
• in female mice fed a 0.5% cholesterol diet

N
• mice exhibit normal body composition
• in male mice beginning at 5 weeks of age and in female mice at 12 weeks
• at 12 weeks in male mice
