homeostasis/metabolism
• higher insulin/glucose ratios in fasted mice
• insulin sensitivity is normal
|
• lower basal glucose after 2 hours of fasting
• lower glucose in response to oral amino acid administration to mice fasted 2 hours
• lower glucose after 24 hour fast
• normal response in a glucose tolerance test
|
• elevated basal insulin after 2 hours of fasting
• elevated insulin in response to oral amino acid administration to mice fasted 2 hours
• insulin responses are also normal in a glucose tolerance test even though insulin levels are elevated
• increased insulin response to amino acid administration, particularly glutamine, leucine, and alanine
|
• plasma 3-OH-butyrylcarnitine is elevated 4X in the fed state and 2X after 24 hours of fasting
|
• 6 carbon fatty acid levels are increased 3X after 24 hours of fasting
• 8 carbon fatty acid levels are increased 2X after 24 hours of fasting
|
• increased urine secretion of 3-hydroxyglutarate
• increased urine secretion of glutaconic acid
|
endocrine/exocrine glands
• glucagon staining alpha cells are distributed throughout the islets rather than being restricted to the outer margin
• glucagon content of the islets is normal
|
renal/urinary system
• increased urine secretion of 3-hydroxyglutarate
• increased urine secretion of glutaconic acid
