N normal phenotype
growth/size/body
• mice exhibit low levels of body fat mass
• mice exhibit resistance to high-fat diet-induced obesity
• dwarfism
• mice are lighter after 11 weeks of age (J:301497)
• reduction in linear length

nervous system
• marker analysis shows a reduction in growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) producing neurons
• however, proopiemlanocortin (POMC)-neuron numbers are normal and agouti-related peptide (agRP)-neurons are mildly increased

adipose tissue
• mice exhibit low levels of body fat mass

homeostasis/metabolism
• mice exhibit resistance to high-fat diet-induced obesity
• mice exhibit increased serum and feces bile acid levels
• both serum and hepatic bile acid levels are increased during daytime, resulting in a loss of rhythmic fluctuation of bile acid levels over the circadian cycle

craniofacial
• flattened snout

growth/size/body
• flattened snout
• decrease in body weight, however no decrease in brain weight is seen

hearing/vestibular/ear

nervous system
• reduction in dentate gyrus granule cell layer
• reduction in dentate gyrus granule cell layer
• reduction in neurogenesis in the granule cell layer as evidenced by reduced expression of doublecortin and EdU staining
• decrease in dendritic branching complexity of doublecortin-positive cells in the granule cell layer
