homeostasis/metabolism
N
• fasted mice at room temperature and exposed to cold exhibit normal serum levels of non-esterified fatty acids and ketone bodies
• fasted mice exposed to cold exhibit a rapid drop in body temperature compared with wild-type mice
• however, fed mice exhibit normal body temperature when cold exposed
• in fasted mice at room temperature and exposed to cold
• in fasted mice at room temperature and more pronounced when mice are exposed to cold
• reduced triglyceride levels in brown adipose tissue in fasted mice at room temperature and more pronounced when mice are exposed to cold
• in fasted mice at room temperature and more so in fasted mice exposed to cold

adipose tissue
• in fasted mice at room temperature and exposed to cold
• reduced glucose uptake in the brown adipose tissue of fasted mice exposed to cold
• reduced glucose uptake in the brown adipose tissue of fasted mice exposed to cold
• reduced fatty acid uptake in the brown adipose tissue of fasted mice at room temperature and exposed to cold

nervous system
• more thinly myelinated fibers are found at 3 and 6 weeks after sciatic nerve crush injury than in controls
• myelinated fibers with decreased diameters
• more thinly myelinated fibers are found at 3 and 6 weeks after sciatic nerve crush injury than in controls
• myelinated fibers with decreased diameters
• more macrophage present

immune system
• more macrophage present at 3 and 6 weeks after sciatic nerve crush injury than in controls

muscle
• in fasted mice at room temperature and more pronounced when mice are exposed to cold
• glucose uptake in skeletal muscles is not enhanced by cold-exposure in fasted mice
• reduced fatty acid uptake in skeletal muscles at room temperature and in cold-exposed fasted mice
• glucose uptake in skeletal muscles is not enhanced by cold-exposure in fasted mice

cardiovascular system
• resting coronary resistance is lower than in controls
• hexarelin fails to induce a dose dependent increase in coronary perfusion pressure as it does in controls

cellular
• reduced glucose uptake in the brown adipose tissue of fasted mice exposed to cold
• more macrophage present at 3 and 6 weeks after sciatic nerve crush injury than in controls
• glucose uptake in skeletal muscles is not enhanced by cold-exposure in fasted mice

hematopoietic system
• more macrophage present at 3 and 6 weeks after sciatic nerve crush injury than in controls
