Homozygous null mutations cause altered lipid, cholesterol and glucose metabolism and may lead to elevated cartilage matrix catabolism and PGE2 production, lipid-laden uterus myocytes and Sertoli cells, impaired uterus contractility and parturition, and higher susceptibility to bacterial infection.
