Mild lipodystrophy with modest metabolic anomalies in Ppargtm3(tTA)Yba/Pparg+ mice compared to Ppargtm2(tTA)Yba/Pparg+ mice

adipose tissue
• subcutaneous fat pad is reduced but present
• however, treatment with doxycycline reverses defects observed
• brown adipocytes are pale, unilocular and hypertrophic
• however, no buffalo humps are observed and treatment wit doxycycline reverses defects observed
• authors state that defects in brown adipose tissue are the same as in Ppargtm2Yba heterozygotes
• brown adipocytes are pale, unilocular and hypertrophic
• however, treatment with doxycycline reverses defects observed
• brown adipocytes are hypertrophic
• gonadal fat pads are reduced compared to in wild-type mice
• however, treatment with doxycycline reverses defects observed

homeostasis/metabolism
• however, treatment with doxycycline reverses defects observed
• insulin levels are elevated compared to those in wild-type mice but not as high as in Ppargtm2Yba heterozygotes
• triglyceride levels are elevated compared to those in wild-type mice but not as high as in Ppargtm2Yba heterozygotes
• however, treatment with doxycycline reverses defects observed

liver/biliary system
• the liver is modestly increased in size compared to in wild-type mice
• however, treatment with doxycycline reverses defects observed

integument
