growth/size/body
• males exhibit increased body weight gain
|
• mice fed a high-fat and high-sucrose diet for 12 weeks gain body weight at a faster rate than wild-type mice
|
digestive/alimentary system
• the epithelium of the distal colon is extensively blunted
|
• mice develop extensively delayed whole gut transit, with increased whole gut transit times
• mice develop slow transit constipation as indicated by delayed colonic transit time
• treatment of 5-month-old mice with an miR-10b-5p mimic rescues gut dysmotility
|
• mice show reduced percentage of gastric emptying
|
• mice show increased gut permeability
• treatment of 5-month-old mice with an miR-10b-5p mimic rescues leaky gut
|
• mice show severe epithelial erosion marked crypt damage, and increased inflammatory cell infiltration indicating colon inflammation
|
homeostasis/metabolism
• mice fed a high-fat and high-sucrose diet for 12 weeks gain body weight at a faster rate than wild-type mice
|
• mice develop increased blood glucose levels after 20 weeks of age
• mice fed a high-fat and high-sucrose diet for 12 weeks experience an earlier onset of hyperglycemia than wild-type mice
• treatment of 5-month-old mice with an miR-10b-5p mimic rescues hyperglycemia
|
• males show impaired glucose tolerance at 15, 30 60, 90, and 120 min after glucose injection
• females show impaired glucose tolerance at 60, 90, and 120 min after glucose injection
|
immune system
• mice show severe epithelial erosion marked crypt damage, and increased inflammatory cell infiltration indicating colon inflammation
