mortality/aging
• by 3 to 4 weeks when fed standard chow dry pellet diet at weaning
• within 7 to 14 weeks in mice fed a paste diet
|
homeostasis/metabolism
N |
• mice exhibit normal insulin sensitivity and serum glucagon levels
|
• increased beta-hydroxybutyrate
|
• reduced triglycerides in very-low- density lipoprotein and increased triglycerides in low-density lipoprotein
|
• in the light and dark phase
|
• in the light phase; indicating increased dependence on lipids over carbohydrates as an energy source
|
• with more glycogen granules that in wild-type mice
|
• partially reduced glycerophosphocholine and choline levels in the kidneys
• however, levels in the brown adipose tissue, cerebrum, and blood were normal
|
• with smaller lipid droplets in mice fed a methionine/choline-deficient diet
|
liver/biliary system
• with more glycogen granules that in wild-type mice
|
• with smaller lipid droplets in mice fed a methionine/choline-deficient diet
