N normal phenotype
liver/biliary system
N
• mice exhibit normal liver function

homeostasis/metabolism
N
• mice exhibit normal insulin tolerance, glucagon secretion and metabolic response to a high-fat diet
• in mice fed chow or a high-fat diet
• twice as much as in control cells with a large portion of secreted insulin degraded through a single liver passage
• mildly in mice fed chow
• increased insulin clearance after glucose challenge
• proinsulin to insulin ratio is slightly higher than in wild-type mice
• low zinc content in beta cell islets

endocrine/exocrine glands
• insulin crystallization failure at 6 and 20 weeks with atypical insulin granules lacking a detectable dense core
• however, mice exhibit normal beta cell area and vessel structure and counts in islets
• in mice fed chow or a high-fat diet
• twice as much as in control cells with a large portion of secreted insulin degraded through a single liver passage
