skeleton
• 64% reduction in skull fontanelle area at P1 due to advanced intramembranous ossification
|
• at P154, the resorption surface is increased 22% in cortical bone, and 10% in trabecular bone compared to in wild-type mice
|
short tibia
(
J:120899
)
• up to 5% shorter between P21 and P56 with persistent short tibias in adults
|
• the long bone epiphyseal plate is narrow with advanced secondary centers of ossification at P21
• however, by P56 the epiphyseal plate is normal
• the reserve, proliferative, and hypertrophic zones are narrower than in wild-type mice
|
• narrow
|
• at P21, calcified bone is increased compared to in wild-type mice
|
• 20% at P154
|
• after P56
|
• 11% at P21
|
• in juvenile mice, the bone volume fraction and trabecular thickness are increased compared to in wild-type mice
• at P154, trabecular bone mass is decreased with reduced connectivity and rod-like morphology compared to in wild-type mice
|
• at P154
|
osteoporosis
(
J:120899
)
• in adult mice
|
• bone mineralization is reduced compared to in wild-type mice
|
• at E17.5, P1, and P21 but not P56
|
• T3-treated chondrocytes fail to exhibit a decreased in proliferation and an increase in alkaline phosphatase activity unlike similarly treated wild-type cells
• however, chondrocytes retain their ability to differentiate following treatment with BMP2
|
homeostasis/metabolism
• mice develop hyperthyroidism
(J:68577)
• however, treatment with 5-propyl-2-thiouracil (PTU) and a low-iodine diet restores euthyroid state
(J:68577)
|
• 10-fold
(J:120899)
• mice exhibit increased serum TSH levels compared with wild-type mice
(J:126521)
• after a low-iodine diet and propylthiouracil, mice exhibit increased TSH serum levels compared to in similarly treated wild-type mice
(J:126521)
|
• mice exhibit resistance to thyroid hormone unlike wild-type mice
(J:120899)
• at P154, mice fail to exhibit trabecular thinning when treated with T4 unlike wild-type mice
(J:120899)
• after a low-iodine diet and propylthiouracil and L-T3, mice exhibit some resistance to thyroid hormone compared with wild-type mice
(J:126521)
|
endocrine/exocrine glands
• mice exhibit an increase in follicle number and size with different size, content, aspects of colloid, and development of vascularization compared with wild-type mice
|
• diffuse
|
• mice exhibit skeletal thyrotoxicosis (hyperthyrodism)
|
cardiovascular system
N |
• left ventricular papillary muscle contraction is normal
|
• mice exhibit tachycardia
• however, treatment with 5-propyl-2-thiouracil (PTU) and a low-iodine diet restores normal heart rate
|
