• crown-like structure found in WAT

growth/size/body
• body weight in males is similar to wild-type at 4 weeks, but decreases by 22 weeks

homeostasis/metabolism
• on high fat diet, mice exhibit higher fasting blood glucose levels, however, there are no differences in body or fat pad weight
• triglyceride contents of epididymal and subcutaneous WAT is decreased

integument
