N normal phenotype
mortality/aging
• mutants treated with doxorubicin, an anti-tumor agent with cardiotoxicity, show a higher survival rate
• mutants are prone to premature death after 20 weeks of age and show lower survival rates than wild-type at 42 weeks of age

cardiovascular system
• hearts show hypertrophy of individual myocytes but no evidence of increased fibrosis, myofibrillar disarray, or inflammatory changes
• cross-sectional myocardial-cell diameter is increased
• hearts show an increase in heart weight-to-body weight ratio
• show dilatation of the left ventricles without a significant increase in wall thickness at 24 weeks of age
• at 24 weeks of age, show depressed fractional shortening and increased cavity diameter of the left ventricles but no differences in left ventricular wall thickness and heart rate
• develop heart failure after 20 weeks of age

muscle
• hearts show hypertrophy of individual myocytes but no evidence of increased fibrosis, myofibrillar disarray, or inflammatory changes
• cross-sectional myocardial-cell diameter is increased
• at 24 weeks of age, show depressed fractional shortening and increased cavity diameter of the left ventricles but no differences in left ventricular wall thickness and heart rate

homeostasis/metabolism
• mutants treated with doxorubicin, an anti-tumor agent with cardiotoxicity, show a higher survival rate
• mutants treated with doxorubicin, an anti-tumor agent with cardiotoxicity, show more preserved left ventricular function, and no myocardial cell apoptosis compared to wild-type, indicating prevention of acute heart failure

growth/size/body
• hearts show an increase in heart weight-to-body weight ratio
