We have characterized a newly generated mouse model of obesity, a mouse strain deficient in all five previously described leptin receptor isoforms. These transgenic mice, named the db333/db333 mice, were identified from an ENU mutagenesis screen and carry a point mutation in the seventh exon of the db gene encoding the leptin receptor, resulting in a premature stop codon (Y333Stop) and gene product that lacks STAT signaling domains. db333/db333 mice have a morbidly obese phenotype, with body weights diverging from wild-type as early as 4 weeks of age (P<0.05). To determine the contribution of the short isoforms of the leptin receptor in this metabolic phenotype we performed an extensive metabolic characterization of the db333/db333 mouse in relation to the well characterized db/db mouse lacking only the long form of the leptin receptor. db333/db333 mice have similar endocrine and metabolic parameters as previously described in other leptin receptor transgenic mice including db/db mice that lack only the long isoform of the leptin receptor. However, db333/db333 mice show a subtle trend towards higher body weight, insulin levels, lower oxygen production, carbon dioxide production, respiratory efficiency ratio and temperature than db/db mice suggesting the short isoforms may play an additional role in energy homeostasis.
