N normal phenotype
immune system
• mice develop sclerosing cholangitis
• propranolol treatment reduces inflammation

liver/biliary system
• mice develop sclerosing cholangitis
• propranolol treatment reduces inflammation
• mice develop periportal fibrosis after 3 months of age, characterized by onion skin-like matrix formation around the bile ducts
• after 5 months, septal formation and massive matrix deposition is seen around ducts in the liver and at 8 months, periportal fibrosis is frequently accompanied by septae formation and prominent proliferation of the bile ducts
• propranolol treatment improves liver architecture and reduces inflammation and fibrosis progression

cardiovascular system
• mice treated with propranolol long-term show a minor reduction in the average systolic blood pressure without impact on viability
