cardiovascular system
• decrease in basal, state 3 and state 3u respiration in heart mitochondria
• levels of respiratory chain complex I are significantly increased but the activity of complex I is significantly decreased in hearts compared to wild-type controls
|
• following transverse aorta constriction mice develop marked left ventricular dilatation with a significant decrease in fractional shortening resulting in heart failure compared to wild-type controls that develop adaptive cardiac hypertrophy with moderate left ventricular dilation
• cardiomyocyte enlargement following transverse aorta constriction is more severe than in controls
• more than 70% of mice die by 140 days post transverse aorta constriction compared to only 20% of controls
