behavior/neurological
N |
• intravenous administration of IL-1beta induces reduction in food intake (IL-1beta-induced anorexia over 22 hours; this is similar to response of control mice
|
• mutants exhibit reduced lethargy relative to controls in response to intravenous IL-1beta administration
|
• injection of IL-1beta at 10 am reduced spontaneous locomotion in mutants the next night, response is weaker than in controls
|
homeostasis/metabolism
N |
• mice have normal body temperature
• corticosterone plasma levels rise to same extent as controls in response to IL-1beta administration
|
• IL-1beta induces only a short-lasting fever response in mutants compared to controls; however, early fever response remains intact
|
growth/size/body
N |
• intravenous administration of IL-1beta induces weight loss in mutants over 22 hours; this is similar to response of control mice
