cardiovascular system
N |
• mice exhibit normal baseline cardiac function and response to transverse aortic constriction
|
• reduced tendency to ventricular tachycardia after a burst pacing protocol compared with wild-type mice
• however, mice exhibit normal heart rate, ECG parameters and refractory periods at baseline or in response to isoproterenol
|
muscle
• 8-CPT-induced increase in calcium spark frequency (a measure of sarcoplasmic leak) is abolished prior to or after isoproterenol treatment
