cardiovascular system
• mild focal fibrosis in ventricular myocardium at 10 months of age
|
• mice develop cardiac dilation at 10 months of age, but not at 4 and 7 months
|
• mice develop decreased fractional shortening and ejection fraction at 10 months of age
|
• mice exhibit left ventricular end-diastolic dilation and decreased left ventricular systolic function
|
• mice exhibit slower heart rate at 4 months of age
|
• appears as early as 4 months of age
|
• prolonged PR intervals in 4 month old mice
|
• prolonged QRS intervals in 4 month old mice
|
• percentage of sarcomere shortening is reduced in cardiomyocytes suggesting impaired contractile function
|
• the peak L-type calcium current amplitude is reduced in cardiomyocytes, the threshold and peak voltage of the I-V relationship are rightward shifted leading to reduced calcium channel function
|
• sodium currents are altered with cardiomyocytes showing a 10 mV rightward shift of the threshold and the peak voltage in the sodium channel I-V relationships
|
muscle
• mice develop decreased fractional shortening and ejection fraction at 10 months of age
|
• severe sarcomere derangement in the myocardium of 10 month old mice
|
• Z-band disorganization in the myocardium of 10 month old mice
