mortality/aging
• following transverse aortic constriction or swimming exercise
|
cardiovascular system
• decreased cardiac torsion
|
• isolated from ventricle
|
• following transverse aortic constriction
|
• moderately along the long axis
|
• at 3 and 6 months
• following transverse aortic constriction
|
• increased left ventricle volume at end systole and end diastole prior to and following transverse aortic constriction
|
• prior to and following transverse aortic constriction
• exercise does not improve cardiac contraction
|
• following transverse aortic constriction, mice fail to exhibit an increase in left ventricle end-systolic pressure but an increase in end-diastolic pressure unlike wild-type mice
|
• prolonged ventricular depolarization
|
• small prolongation
|
• reduced contractility and speed of relaxation
• however, amplitude of intracellular calcium transient is normal
|
• after transverse aortic constriction, mice exhibit profound heart failure, increased heart size, decreased survival rate, increased heart weight, increase in end-diastolic pressure and decreased ventricle contraction and relaxation compared with wild-type mice
|
• following transverse aortic constriction
|
homeostasis/metabolism
• after transverse aortic constriction, mice exhibit profound heart failure, increased heart size, decreased survival rate, increased heart weight, increase in end-diastolic pressure and decreased ventricle contraction and relaxation compared with wild-type mice
|
• exercise does not improve cardiac contraction
• however, exercised mice exhibit an increase in heart weight as in wild-type mice
|
muscle
• isolated from ventricle
|
• prior to and following transverse aortic constriction
• exercise does not improve cardiac contraction
|
growth/size/body
• moderately along the long axis
