N
• despite osteosclerosis in adult mice, bone mineralization is normal
• at P154, the resorption surface is reduced 21% in cortical bone, and 9% in trabecular bone compared to in wild-type mice
• wider with delayed secondary centers of ossification at P21, P56, and to a lesser extent at P154
• at P21, the reserve zone is enlarged while the hypertrophic zone is narrower than in wild-type mice
• delayed endochondral ossification: decrease in secondary ossification center size, increase in reserve zone width and decrease in hypertrophic zone at age P21
• up to 7% shorter between P21 and P56
• delayed endochondral ossification: decrease in secondary ossification center size, increase in reserve zone width and decrease in hypertrophic zone at age P21
• at age P21
• at P21, calcified bone is decreased compared to in wild-type mice
• in vertebrae at age P21
• normal in long bones at age P21
• in juvenile mice, the bone volume fraction and number of trabeculae are decreased compared to in wild-type mice
• at P154, trabecular bone mass is increased with increased connectivity and plate-like morphology compared to in wild-type mice
• trabecular bone volume fraction is increased 1.8-fold compared to in wild-type mice
• in adult mice
• chondrocytes treated with T3 and/or BMP2 exhibit lower alkaline phosphatase activity compared with similarly treated wild-type cells

homeostasis/metabolism
N
• normal hypoglycemic effect of active thyroid hormone (T3) injection
• at P56 but not P21 or P154 (J:120899)
• enterocytes show a moderate decrease in lactase and sucrase enzyme activity
• at P154, mice exhibit thinning of trabecular bone volume fraction following treatment with T4 unlike similarly treated wild-type mice

cardiovascular system
• time to peak tension and time to 50% relaxation are prolonged compared to in wild-type mice
• QRS duration is increased compared to in wild-type mice

digestive/alimentary system
• decrease in thickness of the mucosa
• decrease in the number of goblet cells in the ileum
• reduction in villus height that results from a decrease in the number of epithelial cells per crypt-villus axis
• enterocytes show a moderate decrease in lactase and sucrase enzyme activity
• proliferation is impaired but apparently normal differentiation; number of proliferating epithelial cells per crypt is reduced in the distal small intestine
• administration of T3 to induce hyperthyroidism, does not stimulate proliferation of crypt cells as in wild-type, despite higher levels of serum T3

muscle
• time to peak tension and time to 50% relaxation are prolonged compared to in wild-type mice

endocrine/exocrine glands
• mice exhibit skeletal hypothyrodism

growth/size/body
• at P21, P56, and P70
• delayed linear growth at age P21

hematopoietic system
• at P154, the resorption surface is reduced 21% in cortical bone, and 9% in trabecular bone compared to in wild-type mice

immune system
• at P154, the resorption surface is reduced 21% in cortical bone, and 9% in trabecular bone compared to in wild-type mice

limbs/digits/tail
• up to 7% shorter between P21 and P56
• at P21
• up to 17% shorter between P21 and P56

cellular
• decrease in the number of goblet cells in the ileum
• proliferation is impaired but apparently normal differentiation; number of proliferating epithelial cells per crypt is reduced in the distal small intestine
• administration of T3 to induce hyperthyroidism, does not stimulate proliferation of crypt cells as in wild-type, despite higher levels of serum T3
