homeostasis/metabolism
• islet insulin levels are increase 20% compared to in wild-type islets
• islet cells secrete 50% less insulin in responses to 11 or 16.7 mM glucose
• the amplitude of insulin pulses are reduced
• however, the period of insulin pulses are normal
• fasting blood glucose levels are elevated (7.6+/-0.3 mM compared to 4.6+/-0.6 mM in wild-type mice)
• basal blood glucose levels are elevated in nonfasting animals (11.2+/-0.3 mM compared to 8.2+/-0.2 mM in wild-type mice)
• the percentage increase in glucose-stimulated insulin levels is reduced (42+/-15% compared to 140+/-32% in wild-type mice)
• 0.44+/-0.07 ng/ml compared to 0.34+/-0.08 ng/ml in wild-type mice

endocrine/exocrine glands
• islet cells secrete 50% less insulin in responses to 11 or 16.7 mM glucose
• the amplitude of insulin pulses are reduced
• however, the period of insulin pulses are normal
