phenotype observed in females

N normal phenotype
behavior/neurological
• 50 mg/kg and 60 mg/kg of sodium pentobarbital induces a greater loss of righting reflex (LORR) than in wild-type mice (135% and143%, respectively by dose)
• however, righting response is no different from that of wild-type mice after treatment with ketamin
• NPY-induced sensitization to LORR induced by pentobarbital or ketamine is increased compared to in wild-type mice
• NPY-induced sensitization to LORR induced by pentobarbital greater when NPY is injected into the posterior hypothalamus versus the lateral hypothalamus
• mice sleep longer than wild-type mice following treatment with pentobarbital

adipose tissue

behavior/neurological
• mutants show an attenuated response to leptin, exhibiting only a 15.2% reduction in food intake compared to 30.5% decrease in wild-type mice, 12 hours after leptin administration, however no differences in food intake are observed after 45 hours
• mean 12% increase in 24-hour food consumption
• reduction in activity during both dark and light phases

cardiovascular system
• increase shows statistical significance at night

growth/size/body
• males and females fed a normal-fat diet are mildly overweight
• a high-fat diet leads to a more substantial increase in body weight, especially in females

homeostasis/metabolism
• reduction in energy consumption as indicated by reduced activity during both light and dark phases
