renal/urinary system
kidney cyst
(
J:246596
)
|
• mice develop mild renal cystic disease, with 6- and 12-month old mice showing small renal cysts
|
|
• small cortical cysts are seen at 12 months of age
|
|
• small medullary cysts are seen at 12 months of age
|
|
• kidney to body weight ratios are higher compared to wild-type mice at 12 months of age
|
|
• 12-month-old mice exhibit a mild urine concentration defect after 24 hours of dehydration and are able to excrete a water load faster
• renal cAMP levels tend to be higher in the kidneys but not in the hearts
|
cardiovascular system
|
• mice exhibit higher left ventricle ejection fractions
|
|
• mice exhibit higher left ventricle ejection fractions on echocardiography
• however, no difference in left ventricle mass is seen
|
|
• mice exhibit lower aortic blood pressures

|
homeostasis/metabolism
|
• total phosphodiesterase (PDE) and phosphodiesterase 1(PDE1) activities are reduced in the kidney
• PDE3 and PDE4 activities are increased in the kidney
|
muscle
|
• mice exhibit higher left ventricle ejection fractions
|
reproductive system
| N |
• males and females are fertile and litter sizes are normal
