N normal phenotype
mortality/aging
N
• mice are born in normal Mendelian ratios

reproductive system
• mice have few mature graafian follicles
• mice exhibit immature endometrial epithelium compared with wild-type mice
• mice exhibit little glandular development compared with wild-type mice
• following hormone treatment, more eggs are released compared to in similarly treated wild-type mice
• irregular with prolonged diesterus and proesterus and shortened estrus
• breeding of female mice is largely unsuccessful compared with wild-type mice
• from female mice

homeostasis/metabolism
N
• mice exhibit normal fasting glucose and glucose clearance
• mice exhibit a tend towards reduced serum insulin levels compared with wild-type mice
• mice exhibit increased endocrine IGF-I levels compared with wild-type mice

growth/size/body
• at birth, mice are smaller than wild-type mice
• however, body weight is normalized by 2 weeks of age
• at 4 weeks of age, mice exhibit decreased body length compared with wild-type mice
• however, body length is normalized later on during growth and femur length is normal at 16 weeks of age

adipose tissue
• at 4 but not 8 weeks
• at 4 and 8 weeks but not 16 weeks

hematopoietic system

endocrine/exocrine glands
• mice exhibit increased ductal branching compared to in wild-type mice
• mice exhibit little glandular development compared with wild-type mice
• mice have few mature graafian follicles

immune system

integument
• mice exhibit increased ductal branching compared to in wild-type mice
