• Allelic Composition: Prlh^tm1Taon/Prlh^tm1Taon
• Genetic Background: B6N.129X1-Prlh^tm1Taon

• ♀: phenotype observed in females
• ♂: phenotype observed in males
• N: normal phenotype

growth/size/body

increased body weight ( J:144729 )

• become significantly heavier by 18 weeks of age when fed a normal chow diet ad libitum

• body weight gain is more prominent when fed a high fat diet ad libitum

• when food intake is restricted to match mean food intake of wild-type controls body weight is not significantly different from wild-type controls

obese ( J:144729 )

• adult onset obesity

increased susceptibility to diet-induced obesity ( J:144729 )

• become significantly heavier when fed a high fat diet compared to wild-type controls

adipose tissue

increased brown adipose tissue amount ( J:144729 )

increased white adipose tissue amount ( J:144729 )

• increase in both subcutaneous and intraabdominal fat pad masses

increased fat cell size ( J:144729 )

• epididymal adipocytes are increased in size

behavior/neurological

behavior/neurological phenotype ( J:144729 )

N • no significant difference in home cage activity levels compared to wild-type controls

increased food intake ( J:144729 )

• seen on both normal chow and high fat diets

• seen at 24 weeks of age but not before 14 weeks of age

• impairment in reduction in food intake following peripheral or central leptin administration

increased compensatory feeding amount ( J:144729 )

• feeding after a fast is increased at 14 weeks of age

homeostasis/metabolism

homeostasis/metabolism phenotype ( J:144729 )

N • no significant difference in oxygen consumption or mean respiratory exchange ratios compared to wild-type controls

increased susceptibility to diet-induced obesity ( J:144729 )

• become significantly heavier when fed a high fat diet compared to wild-type controls

increased circulating insulin level ( J:144729 )

increased circulating leptin level ( J:144729 )

increased circulating triglyceride level ( J:144729 )

impaired glucose tolerance ( J:144729 )

• in mice fed a normal chow diet ad libitum

• when food intake is restricted to match mean food intake of wild-type controls glucose tolerance is similar to wild-type controls

insulin resistance ( J:144729 )

• in mice fed a normal chow diet ad libitum

• when food intake is restricted to match mean food intake of wild-type controls insulin sensitivity is similar to wild-type controls

increased liver triglyceride level ( J:144729 )

• increase in hepatic triglyceride levels

liver/biliary system

increased liver triglyceride level ( J:144729 )

• increase in hepatic triglyceride levels

hepatic steatosis ( J:144729 )

nervous system

abnormal autonomic nervous system physiology ( J:144729 )

• after refeeding there is no significant increase in the percentage of p-CREB-positive PRLH neurons in the ventrolateral medulla oblongota or in the dorsomedial hypothalamus suggesting impaired activation of these neurons
