Abstract

An androgen receptor (AR) null mutant mice line was generated by means of a Cre-lox P system. The male (AR(L-/Y)) (KO) mice exhibited typical features of testicular feminization mutant (Tfm) disease in external reproductive organs with growth retardation. The growth curve of the male AR KO mice was similar to that of the wild-type female littermates until the 10th week of age, but thereafter a drastic increase in the growth was observed with development of obesity. Clear increase in the wet weights of white adipose tissues, but not of brown adipose tissue, was found in the 30-week-old male AR KO mice. However, no significant alteration in serum lipid parameters and food intake was observed. Thus, the present results suggest that AR may serve as a negative regulator of adipose development in adult males.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
