cardiovascular system
• exhibit myocytes accumulating increased glycogen in the myocardium of the right and left ventricles
|
• myocytes exhibit multiple nuclei with great variation in size, indicating hypertrophy
• large vacuoles are abundant throughout the myocardium of the right and left ventricles
• exhibit muscle bundles that extend from the atrium to the ventricle in the region of the fibrous body
|
• heart weight is nearly 3x that of nontransgenic controls
|
• hypertrophic cardiomyoctyes
|
• posterior ventricular wall thickness at 2 months of age is increased and exhibit an increase in end-diastolic diameter and end-systolic diameter with decreased systolic function
|
• atrial electrical stimulation induced supraventricular tachycardia in 6 of 12 mutants, consistent with orthodromic atrioventricular (AV) reentrant tachycardia characterized by antegrade conduction via the AV node and retrograde conduction over the accessory pathway
• atrial premature beats and/or tachycardia are observed spontaneously or after atrial electrical stimulation in 58% of mutants, however ventricular electrical stimulation does not induce ventricular arrhythmias
|
• 21 of 134 show ventricular preexcitation as evidenced by a short PR interval and a wide QRS, and a significant prolongation of the sinus cycle length with normal sinus node recovery times
• exhibit the presence of a functioning accessory pathway bypassing the atrioventricular (AV) node
|
• baseline ECG recordings of 21 of 134 mutants show a short PR interval
|
• baseline ECG recordings of 21 of 134 mutants show increased QRS duration with slurred upstroke
|
homeostasis/metabolism
