N normal phenotype
adipose tissue
• subcutaneous body fat is reduced by about a third compared to controls when fed a high fat diet
• mice have lower bodyfat compared to controls when fed a chow diet
• visceral and total body fat is reduced by about a third compared to controls when fed a high fat diet

growth/size/body
• mice weight slightly less than controls when fed a chow diet
• mice weigh 12% less than controls after being fed a high-fat diet for 8 weeks

homeostasis/metabolism
• respiratory quotient is significantly lower than controls when mice are fed a high-fat diet for 8 weeks
• mice show improved glucose tolerance compared to controls when fed a high fat diet
• mice have increased insulin sensitivity compared to controls when fed a high fat diet
• glucose infusion rate and whole-body glucose disposal rates are significantly increased in these mice during hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp experiments

immune system
