adipose tissue
• increased beige and white coloring of brown adipose tissue compared with wild-type mice
|
• white adipocytes exhibit reduced caveolae number, size, and diameter compared with heterozygous cells
|
• under normal and glucose depletion conditions
|
• epigonadal
|
• periinguinal
|
• brown and white adipocytes exhibit increased number of caveolae detaching from the plasma membrane compared with heterozygous cells
• however, the total number of caveolae in brown adipocytes is normal
|
• however, adipocytes exhibit normal glucose-stimulated lipid uptake and starvation-induced lipid release
|
cellular
• however, adipocytes exhibit normal glucose-stimulated lipid uptake and starvation-induced lipid release
|
• embryonic fibroblasts exhibit increased caveolar mobility, lipid accumulation and adipocyte differentiation compared with control mice
• however, expression of the protein lacking the N-terminus, the EH-domain or both rescues lipid accumulation
|
homeostasis/metabolism
N |
• mice exhibit normal plasma levels of adiponectin, leptin, and insulin
|
• slightly
