homeostasis/metabolism
• the 24 hour fasting-induced increase in plasma uridine that is seen in wild-type mice is reduced in doxycycline (Dox)-treated mutant mice

adipose tissue
• mice that are switched to a Dox high-fat diet at 69 weeks of age show a higher fat mass than controls 4 weeks after the diet switch
• however, Dox-treated mice fed a high-fat diet do not show a difference in body weight gain from wild-type mice fed the same diet

growth/size/body
• mice continue to increase their body weight when switched to a doxycycline (Dox)-containing diet, although not at the same extent as wild-type mice thus showing a partial reversal of weight loss

adipose tissue
N
• size of adipocytes is epididymal white adipose tissue (eWAT), subcutaneous white adipose tissue (sWAT), and in interscapular brown adipose tissue (BAT)is normal in Dox-treated mice
• adipose tissue uridine content is not increased and thus rescued in Dox-treated mice compared to Tg(tetO-Xbp1_is)#Pesch/0 Tg(Adipoq-rtTA)2Zvw/0 mice

growth/size/body
• weight loss in doxycycline (Dox)-treated mice is mainly due to a reduction of fat mass
• mice start to lose body weight immediately upon switching to Dox-containing diet
• Dox-treated mice fed a high-fat diet show a decrease in body weight and lower overall adiposity compared to wild-type mice

homeostasis/metabolism
• 6 days after the switch to Dox chow, fatty acid oxidation rates are elevated in sWAT
• 90 days after the switch to Dox chow, fatty acid oxidation rates are elevated in both sWAT and BAT
• however, lipid uptake rates are normal
• however, fatty acid or ketone bodies in circulation upon fasting are not affected in Dox-treated mice
• Dox-treated mice fed a high-fat diet show a decrease in body weight and lower overall adiposity compared to wild-type mice
• mice maintain their body temperature slightly but significantly lower than wild-type mice by day 10 of Dox exposure
• however, Dox-treated mice show no difference in food intake
• mice exhibit higher rates of carbon dioxide release under fed, fasted, and refed conditions within 10 days after the switch to Dox chow
• mice exhibit higher rates of oxygen consumption under fed, fasted, and refed conditions within 10 days after the switch to Dox chow
• mice exhibit higher rates of oxygen consumption and carbon dioxide release under fed, fasted, and refed conditions within 10 days after the switch to Dox chow, indicating increased metabolic rate
• heat production is higher under all conditions tested in Dox-treated mice
• upon induction with doxycycline (Dox), mice increase plasma uridine levels 2-fold and maintain elevated levels as long as they are kept on Dox
• Dox-treated mice exhibit higher uridine concentrations in epididymal white adipose tissue (eWAT), subcutaneous white adipose tissue (sWAT), and in interscapular brown adipose tissue (BAT)
• adipocytes grown in culture in the presence of Dox show an initial consumption of uridine by the cells similarly to wild-type cells but subsequently show a greater net release of uridine into the culture medium than wild-type cells
• suppression of uridine release by PALA, an inhibitor of de novo pyrimidine synthesis, is abolished in mature adipocytes

adipose tissue
• weight loss in doxycycline (Dox)-treated mice is mainly due to a reduction of fat mass
• smaller BAT weight in Dox-treated mice
• adipocyte size is reduced in Dox-treated mice
• Dox-treated mice exhibit less fibrosis and inflammation in eWAT at 40 weeks of age
• smaller WAT weight in Dox-treated mice

cellular
• 6 days after the switch to Dox chow, fatty acid oxidation rates are elevated in sWAT
• 90 days after the switch to Dox chow, fatty acid oxidation rates are elevated in both sWAT and BAT
• however, lipid uptake rates are normal
• however, fatty acid or ketone bodies in circulation upon fasting are not affected in Dox-treated mice
