cardiovascular system
• myocyte hypertrophy is detected by 4-5 months of age
• hypertrophy becomes more severe with age
|
• areas of focal interstitial fibrosis are seen in old (14-15 months of age) mice
|
• prior to the development of frank left ventricular hypertrophy indices of myocardial contractility are elevated
• indices of contractility are also increased in old mice
• ejection fraction is increased in old mice
|
• passive diastolic relaxation appears impaired based on an increase in the time to peak filling
|
• decrease in left ventricular end diastolic pressure in young mice
|
• in young and old mice
