Some of these would be:
The U.S. acquired the northern half of Mexico, including the whole states of California, Nevada, Utah, and Texas, as well as parts of Wyoming, Colorado, Oklahoma, Arizona, New Mexico and Kansas.
As the actual reason of the war was the forced acquisition of California, it was promptly flooded with Anglo settlers, who were attracted by the California Gold Rush.
The Mexican-American War was partly motivated by the expansion of slave states; this conflict renewed the slavery question, which eventually would led to the American Civil War (1861-1865).
Finally, Mexico would be so devastated due to the high costs of war, that internal turmoil became the norm during the following 20 years, culminating with the Second Franco-Mexican War (1862-1867).
