N normal phenotype
mortality/aging
• median survival age of 6 months

growth/size/body
• males exhibit lower body weight beginning at 1 month of age which becomes statistically significant at 5 months of age

endocrine/exocrine glands
• 100% of mice develop follicular thyroid carcinoma by 8 weeks of age, showing capsular and/or vascular invasion
• tumors show a molecular signature similar to human sporadic follicular thyroid cancer
• mice are hyperthyroid

adipose tissue
• reduction in subcutaneous adipose tissue
• reduction in visceral adipose tissue

homeostasis/metabolism
• free T4 levels are increased

integument
• reduction in subcutaneous adipose tissue

neoplasm
• 100% of mice develop follicular thyroid carcinoma by 8 weeks of age, showing capsular and/or vascular invasion
• tumors show a molecular signature similar to human sporadic follicular thyroid cancer
• metastatic follicular thyroid carcinoma is seen in the lungs of 27% of mice; metastases are well differentiated, maintain follicular structure with colloid, and stain for thyroglobulin
• tumors exhibit only mild increases in proliferation rate compared to those in single homozygous Prkar1atm1.2Lsk Tg(TPO-cre)1Shk/0 mice
