mortality/aging
• 70% of mice die by 3 weeks of age

adipose tissue
• in testicular and ovarian white adipose tissue fat pad
• in white adipose tissue fat pad
• in white adipose tissue fat pad
• interscapular, inguinal, testicular, ovarian, and intraperitoneal white adipose fat pads are reduced in weight compared to in wild-type mice
• however, interscapular brown adipose tissue depots are normal
• white adipose tissue resembles brown adipose tissue with small-sized, unilocular adipocytes with many multilocular appearing cells unlike in wild-type mice
• white adipose tissue differentiation of preadipocytes is deficient in vivo
• however, in vitro preadipocyte differentiation is normal
• neonates and adults exhibit decreased white adipose tissue mass compared to in wild-type mice despite normal suckling, food intake, and nutrient absorption
• mice lack white adipose tissue in the interscapular and inguinal depots and have smaller than normal testicular and ovarian depots

growth/size/body
• at P5, mice are runted despite normal suckling

liver/biliary system
• at P5, the liver is yellow in appearance due to excessive lipid accumulation unlike in wild-type mice
• however, after weaning liver lipid content is normal

homeostasis/metabolism
• 12% higher than in wild-type mice

• the number of apoptotic cells in the ventricular subependyma is increased compared to in wild-type mice
• mice exhibit increased neuronal precursor numbers due to increased proliferation
• cultured E10 telencephalic neuroepithelia produces more primary neurospheres than cultures from wild-type mice
• adult brain cultures produce 2-fold more primary neurospheres than cultures from wild-type mice independent of cell density
• mice exhibit a higher number of slowly dividing neural precursor cells compared to in wild-type mice

mortality/aging
• between 2 and 4 months, 10% of mice die unlike wild-type mice

hematopoietic system
• sites of extramedullary hematopoiesis exhibit hyperplasia rather than neoplasia
• mice develop a diathetic myeloproliferative disorder
• the number of mice exhibiting abnormal hematopoiesis increases with age
• the number of colony forming units of granulocyte-macrophages that form from femur marrow is increased 2.7- to 12-fold compared to in wild-type samples
• extramedullary hematopoiesis is present in the spleen and liver with some mice exhibiting extramedullary hematopoiesis in the thymus, pancreas, kidneys, and skeletal muscles
• with a strong shift to myeloid lineages
• myeloid extramedullary hematopoiesis is present in the red pulp

growth/size/body
• all mice are runted
• Background Sensitivity: runting is more severe on a background involving 129S4/SvJae and BALB/cJ than on one involving 129S4/SvJae, BALB/cJ, and C57BL/6J
• by 3 weeks of age mice weight half as much as wild-type mice
• by 12 weeks, mice weigh 80% of wild-type
• however, by 15 months mice have a normal weight
• mice exhibit postnatal growth retardation
• however, mice exhibit normal postnatal development

cellular
• proliferation of adult myoblast in culture is increased compared to that of wild-type myoblasts with a shift from G1 to S phase and an 8-fold reduction in spontaneous differentiation
• mouse embryonic fibroblasts from E13.5 embryos exhibit increased proliferation doubling every 35 hours compared with wild-type cells that double every 60 hours

immune system
• myeloid extramedullary hematopoiesis is present in the red pulp
• at 10 months, 70% of mice exhibit evidence of acute or chronic inflammation unlike wild-type mice

muscle
• proliferation of adult myoblast is increased compared to that of wild-type myoblasts with a shift from G1 to S phase and an 8-fold reduction in spontaneous differentiation
