adipose tissue
N |
• unlike in white adipose tissue, no defects are detected in the brown adipose tissue
|
• decrease in the weight of subcutaneous WAT relative to total body weight compared to wild-type controls
|
• decrease in WAT weight compared to wild-type controls
• decrease in the weight of visceral WAT relative to total body weight compared to wild-type controls
|
homeostasis/metabolism
• display less high fat diet induced hyperglycemia in an intraperitoneal glucose tolerance test
|
• hypoglycemic response to insulin is increased compared to wild-type controls
|
cellular
• MEFs display reduced adipocyte differentiation compared to wild-type cells
|
behavior/neurological
N |
• despite the decrease in white adipose tissue weight, no difference in cumulative food intake is detected
|
growth/size/body
N |
• despite the decrease in white adipose tissue weight, no difference in total body weight is detected
|
integument
• decrease in the weight of subcutaneous WAT relative to total body weight compared to wild-type controls
