N normal phenotype
mortality/aging
• median survival is 90 days

cardiovascular system
• defects in matrix density in hearts
• mitochondrial swelling in hearts
• mice exhibit reduced mtDNA abundance, indicating mtDNA deletion in the heart
• cardiomyocyte hypertrophy, with multiple cytoplasmic granular figures consistent with mitochondria
• massive bilateral atrial enlargement
• mice exhibit septal thickening
• massive cardiomegaly with massive bilateral atrial enlargement
• increase in cavity dimensions of left and right ventricles
• mice exhibit ventricular free wall thickening
• echocardiography indicates increased left ventricular mass
• cardiomegaly with increased cavity dimensions of left ventricle and right ventricle, and free wall and septal thickening

cellular
• mitochondrial swelling in hearts
• mice exhibit reduced mtDNA abundance, indicating mtDNA deletion in the heart
• mitochondrial cristae dissolution in hearts
• 8-OHdG levels in mtDNA from mitochondria of hearts are elevated 3-fold, indicating mitochondrial oxidative stress

muscle
• mitochondrial swelling in hearts
• mice exhibit reduced mtDNA abundance, indicating mtDNA deletion in the heart
• cardiomyocyte hypertrophy, with multiple cytoplasmic granular figures consistent with mitochondria
• cardiomegaly with increased cavity dimensions of left ventricle and right ventricle, and free wall and septal thickening

growth/size/body
• massive cardiomegaly with massive bilateral atrial enlargement
