neoplasm
• mice show an earlier onset of hematopoietic neoplasms that spontaneously occur in wild-type mice
• tumors are localized to the liver, spleen, and/or lymph nodes
• tumors express T-cell, B-cell, or myeloid/erythroid cell surface makers or show aberrant expression of markers from multiple hematopoietic lineages

growth/size/body
• females show reduced body weight by 3 weeks of age

mortality/aging
N
• Background Sensitivity: males survive postnatally on a mixed BALB/c, C57BL/6 and FVB/N background unlike mice on a mostly C57BL/6 (with some BALB/cJ) background that die perinatally
• mice are slightly underrepresented by weaning with 17.7% versus the expected 25%

growth/size/body
• lean body volume, but not the adipose tissue volume, is reduced
• body length and femur length are reduced, indicating that reduced body weight is a result of reduced overall growth rather than reduced adipose tissue
• adult males exhibit a reduction in body weight, with a significant difference detected by 2 weeks of age
• largest difference in body weight is at 3 weeks of age, when mice are about 50% smaller than controls

endocrine/exocrine glands
• pituitary is smaller but shows a normal histological structure

adipose tissue
• mice exhibit an increase in the inguinal subcutaneous and dorsal lumbar white fat
• however, no change in the interscapular brown adipose tissue is seen

homeostasis/metabolism
• adrenocorticotropic releasing hormone levels per cell in the pituitary gland are reduced
• reduction in pituitary gland growth hormone levels
• anterior pituitary gland cells produce a reduced amount of growth hormone
• growth hormone levels per cell in the pituitary glands are reduced
• mice show a reduction in the mean concentration and total secreted growth hormone to 55% of controls
• however, levels and secretion of adrenocorticotrophic releasing hormone, follicle stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone, prolactin, and thyroid stimulating hormone are normal
• prolactin levels per cell in the pituitary gland are reduced

nervous system
• pituitary is smaller but shows a normal histological structure

reproductive system
N
• males are fertile

• Background Sensitivity: mice on this C57BL/6 background die perinatally while mice on a mixed C57BL/6, BALB/c, and FVB/N background survive postnatally, although they are slightly underrepresented (J:299742)
