N normal phenotype
mortality/aging
• all die between 16 and 23 weeks of age

cardiovascular system
• Z-lines in 3 month old mice are severely disrupted and disorganized and abnormal mitochondria are seen
• however M-lines are relatively normal
• enlarged left and right ventricles
• the ratios of heart weight to body weight and heart weight to tibia bone length are increased
• thinner at end diastole compared to controls
• enlarged with a thinner wall
• increase in left ventricle size is seen in mice at 2 - 4 months of age but not at 1 month of age
• significant increase in left ventricular dimension at end diastole and end systole
• enlarged with a thinner wall
• in both the left and right ventricles
• electrocardiography reveals an atrioventricular block

muscle
• Z-lines in 3 month old mice are severely disrupted and disorganized and abnormal mitochondria are seen
• however M-lines are relatively normal

growth/size/body
• enlarged left and right ventricles
• the ratios of heart weight to body weight and heart weight to tibia bone length are increased
