mortality/aging
• progressive increase in death rate with age
• separation of survival curve from that of controls is first significant at 200 days after birth
|
liver/biliary system
• at 8 and 12 months, edematous mitochondrial matrix is seen in liver cells but not in skeletal muscle cells
|
• gradual and progressive increase in apoptosis at 4 and 8 months of age
|
• significant hepatocyte loss by 8 months of age
|
• develops in mice over 12 months of age
• at 18 - 24 months of age 86% of mice had hepatocellular carcinomas
• associated with an increase in Iqgap1 expression
|
neoplasm
• develops in mice over 12 months of age
• at 18 - 24 months of age 86% of mice had hepatocellular carcinomas
• associated with an increase in Iqgap1 expression
|
• occasional uterine hemangiomas are detected
|
homeostasis/metabolism
• at 8 months of age
• however, bilirubin, alanine aminotransferase, and creatine phosphokinase levels are not different from wild-type controls at 8 months of age
|
cellular
• at 8 and 12 months, edematous mitochondrial matrix is seen in liver cells but not in skeletal muscle cells
|
• gradual and progressive increase in apoptosis at 4 and 8 months of age
