| Summary |
3 genotypes
|
|
|
| ♀ | phenotype observed in females |
| ♂ | phenotype observed in males |
| N | normal phenotype |
|
• compound mutants continue to gain excess weight
|
| N |
• compound mutants do not develop hyperglycemia
|
|
|
| ♀ | phenotype observed in females |
| ♂ | phenotype observed in males |
| N | normal phenotype |
| N |
• mice survived more than a year after single Irs2 homozygous mice died
|
|
• rod-driven b-wave implicit time is delayed
|
|
• the amplitude of the a-wave is reduced at all flash intensities tested
|
|
• rod-driven b-wave amplitudes are reduced
|
|
• light-adapted responses are reduced
• across stimulus conditions, cone ERGs are reduced on average to 64.9 % of control response, however the implicit time is not changed
|
|
• dark-adapted ERGs are reduced
• across stimulus conditions, rod ERG responses are reduced on average to 34.9% of controls
|
|
• increased proliferation and number of normal-sized beta cells compared to wild-type and single Irs2 homozygous mice
|
|
• expression of Irs2 in beta cells resulted in a persistent compensatory hyperinsulinemia preventing the development of diabetes
• during intraperitoneal glucose challenge, no glucose intolerance was seen unlike in single Irs2 homozygous mice
|
|
|
| ♀ | phenotype observed in females |
| ♂ | phenotype observed in males |
| N | normal phenotype |
|
• at 8 weeks, islet area increased twofold mainly due to increased density of normal-sized islets
• following streptozotocin treatment, beta cell apoptosis was reduced by greatear than 50% compared to wild-type and transgenics did not develop diabetes
|
|
• 2.7-fold increase in pancreatic insulin content, 3-fold increase in insulin secretion during the first 30 min of an intraperitoneal glucose challenge, however glucose homeostasis was normal during the 24 week experiment and mice never developed diabetes

• 2.7-fold increase in pancreatic insulin content, 3-fold increase in insulin secretion during the first 30 min of an intraperitoneal glucose challenge, however glucose homeostasis was normal during the 24 week experiment and mice never developed diabetes
|
|
• transgenic mice fed a high-fat diet became obese and exhibited an increase in insulin levels but had normal fasting glucose levels and normal glucose tolerance at a young age
|
|
• improved glucose tolerance compared to wild-type on a high fat diet and in older mice
