cardiovascular system
• myocytes are variable in size with frequent intracellular inclusions and increased cardiomyocyte cross-sectional area compared to in wild-type mice
• following neonatal induction with doxycycline, mice exhibit increased left ventricular end-diastolic and end-systolic dimension compared with wild-type mice
• slowly progressive
• ventricular ejection is decreased compared to in wild-type mice
• in response to dobutamine, the peak rate of change of left ventricular pressure increase is less than in similarly treated wild-type mice
• 50% of mice exhibit atrial arrhythmia unlike wild-type mice

homeostasis/metabolism
• in response to dobutamine, the peak rate of change of left ventricular pressure increase is less than in similarly treated wild-type mice
