mortality/aging
• seen only when the C57BL/6N contribution to the genetic background was around 50%
|
neoplasm
• colon cancer resulting from treatment with azoxymethane is more severe and mortality occurs earlier than in controls
|
• occasional mice develop sebaceous gland adenomas
|
• colon cancer resulting from treatment with azoxymethane is more severe and mortality occurs earlier than in controls
(J:90217)
• homozygotes respond more quickly to inducing agents with more and larger sized papillomas
(J:90337)
|
• occasional mice develop sebaceous gland adenomas and keratocanthomas
|

|
adipose tissue
• increased adiposity on a high fat diet
|
• smaller than normal gonadal fat stores before 48 weeks of age but not after
|
growth/size/body
• although postnatal development was normal, mice were significantly smaller from 3 days of age to 48 weeks, particularly females
|
• crown to rump length was shorter than normal at E18
|
homeostasis/metabolism
• energy consumption by males is greater than in controls
|
• females show a shift in the composition of phospholipids in the brain
|
• rate of VLDL production in the liver is increased
|
• elevated plasma triglycerides on both normal and high fat diet
|
• on a high fat diet, cholesterol is depleted in the liver
