homeostasis/metabolism
N |
• at 34 days after injection, leptinemia, insulinemia and glycemia are not significantly different from controls
|
• in mice treated with a hypothalamus-specific cre
(J:97455)
|
|
• male, but not female hypothalamus-specific null mice, display corticosteronemia at 34 days post-injection
(J:77345)
|
• at 12 days post-injection, insulinemia of hypothalamus-specific mutants tend toward lower values (58) than controls (97)
|
• male, but not female, hypothalamus-specific knockouts show a four-fold increase in plasma pancreatic polypeptide (PP) levels 34 days after injection
|
skeleton
• in mice treated with a hypothalamus-specific cre
|
• in mice treated with a hypothalamus-specific cre, trabecular bone volume is increased 2-fold compared to in control mice
• in mice treated with a hypothalamus-specific cre, trabeculae number and thickness are increased compared to in control mice
|
• in mice treated with a hypothalamus-specific cre
|
• in mice treated with a hypothalamus-specific cre, bone mineral apposition rate is increased 2-fold compared to in control mice
|
• in mice treated with a hypothalamus-specific cre, bone formation rate is increased 2-fold compared to in control mice
|
growth/size/body
• 7-8 days after hypothalamic cre-recombinase injection, mutants display a drop in body weight compared to GFP-injected mice or cre-injected wild-type mice or mutants receiving cre injection in the CA3 region of the hippocampus; at 12 days post-injection, hypothalamus-specific null mutants weigh significantly less than controls
• recovery to initial body weight is significantly delayed in hypothalamus-specific null mice; male controls return to original body weight within 14-22 days, but male hypothalamic-null mice do not fully recover their body weight until 28 days while null females recover by 23 days post-injection compared to 16 days in control females
|
adipose tissue
N |
• hypothalamus-specific null mice do not show differences in white adipose tissue mass compared to controls
|
behavior/neurological
• male hypothalamus-specific null mice show significantly greater food intake than control mice after cre injection; female hypothalamus-null mutants show a similar tendency toward increased food intake
|
hematopoietic system
• in mice treated with a hypothalamus-specific cre
|
immune system
• in mice treated with a hypothalamus-specific cre
