Reduced thickness of the adipocyte-rich hypodermal layer of Col5a3tm1Dgr/Col5a3tm1Dgr females

endocrine/exocrine glands
• relative area of beta cells and islet density are significantly reduced in newborns
• relative area of beta cells is decreased at 3 months and 1 year of age
• at 8 to 12 weeks of age the beta cell area is reduced due to reduced islet numbers
• at 1 year of age islets are friable unlike islets from wild-type mice
• at 1 year of age about 3 fold more apoptotic cells are seen in pancreatic islets
• marked increase in the numbers of streptozotocin induced apoptotic beta cells

homeostasis/metabolism
• total body weights are lower in females on a high fat diet, but not on a normal chow diet, compared to diet matched wild-type females
• in males and females at 3 months of age and in newborns
• at 1 year of age fasting glucose levels increase to near diabetic levels
• in males and females at 3 months and 1 year of age
• in males and females at 3 months of age
• glucose intolerance appears worse at 1 year of age compared to 3 months
• in males and females at 3 months of age
• insulin resistance appears worse at 1 year of age compared to 3 months
• marked increase in the numbers of streptozotocin induced apoptotic beta cells
• marked loss of body weight in streptozotocin treated mutants compared to similarly treated controls

adipose tissue
• in females at 10 days of age
• decrease in glucose uptake in adipocytes even in the presence of relatively low insulin levels
• defect in glucose uptake increases with age

muscle
• decrease in glucose uptake in response to 100 nM insulin in soleus muscle cells from 10 to 12 week old mice
• defect in glucose uptake increases with age

growth/size/body
• total body weights are lower in females on a high fat diet, but not on a normal chow diet, compared to diet matched wild-type females
• marked loss of body weight in streptozotocin treated mutants compared to similarly treated controls
• total body weights are lower in females on a high fat diet, but not on a normal chow diet, compared to diet matched wild-type females

behavior/neurological
N
• no differences in food intake are detected

integument
• in females at 10 days of age

cellular
• decrease in glucose uptake in adipocytes even in the presence of relatively low insulin levels
• defect in glucose uptake increases with age
• at 1 year of age about 3 fold more apoptotic cells are seen in pancreatic islets
• marked increase in the numbers of streptozotocin induced apoptotic beta cells
• decrease in glucose uptake in response to 100 nM insulin in soleus muscle cells from 10 to 12 week old mice
• defect in glucose uptake increases with age
