Cyp11b1tm1Chjk/Cyp11b1tm1Chjk mice display adrenal hypertrophy

reproductive system
• the uteri are enlarged with multiple cysts unlike in wild-type mice
• female mice are infertile despite normally cycling in young females and the ability of older mice to ovulate when treated with pregnant mare serum and human chorionic gonadotrophin

homeostasis/metabolism
• following handling, mice fail to exhibit an increase in plasma corticosterone levels unlike wild-type mice
• in males, but not female, mice
• in males, but not female, mice
• urine contains decreased aldosterone levels compared to in wild-type mice
• mice exhibit a decrease in corticosterone (9.5-fold and 18-fold in male and female mice, respectively) urine content compared to in wild-type mice
• urine contains increased progesterone levels compared to in wild-type mice
• mice exhibit an increase in deoxycorticosterone (27- and 44-fold in males and females, respectively) urine content compared to in wild-type mice

endocrine/exocrine glands
• wider than normal due to cell hypertrophy
• mice exhibit increased adrenal gland size compared to in wild-type mice with female mice exhibiting less hypertrophy than male mice
• mice exhibit increased adrenal gland size compared to in wild-type mice with female mice exhibiting less hypertrophy than male mice
• pituitary glands are hypertrophied with an increased in the numbers of corticotropes compared to in wild-type mice
• in males, but not female, mice

nervous system
• pituitary glands are hypertrophied with an increased in the numbers of corticotropes compared to in wild-type mice

cardiovascular system

renal/urinary system
• in males, but not female, mice
• urine contains decreased aldosterone levels compared to in wild-type mice
• mice exhibit a decrease in corticosterone (9.5-fold and 18-fold in male and female mice, respectively) urine content compared to in wild-type mice
• urine contains increased progesterone levels compared to in wild-type mice
• mice exhibit an increase in deoxycorticosterone (27- and 44-fold in males and females, respectively) urine content compared to in wild-type mice

adipose tissue
• mice exhibit a decrease in mesenteric, gonadal, subcutaneous, and brown adipose compared to in wild-type mice

hematopoietic system
• in males, but not female, mice

liver/biliary system

immune system
• in males, but not female, mice

growth/size/body
• in males, but not female, mice
