mortality/aging
• about 1/3 of tamoxifen-injected mice die within 28 days, although not all of these mice are edematous or ill

cardiovascular system
• interstitial space between myocytes is increased in hearts of tamoxifen treated mice, although only a minimal increase in interstitial fibrosis is seen
• mice exhibit enlarged hearts after 28 days of tamoxifen treatment
• mice exhibit a 1.89-fold increase in heart weight/tibial length ratio after 28 days of tamoxifen injection
• mice exhibit ventricular dilatation after 28 days of tamoxifen treatment
• in tamoxifen treated mice
• however, myocyte hypertrophy is not seen
• both maximum and minimum dP/dt values are altered after 7 days of tamoxifen treatment, indicating a contractile defect affecting both contraction and relaxation phase of the heart beat
• both maximum and minimum dP/dt values are altered after 7 days of tamoxifen treatment, indicating a contractile defect affecting both contraction and relaxation phase of the heart beat
• left ventricle end diastolic pressure is elevated 21-fold, and left ventricle end systolic presure and ejection fractions are depressed in tamoxifen treated mice
• heart rate is depressed in tamoxifen treated mice
• tamoxifen-treated myocytes exhibit a decrease in L-type calcium current density
• mice progress into overt heart failure with continued tamoxifen treatment

growth/size/body
• mice exhibit enlarged hearts after 28 days of tamoxifen treatment
• mice exhibit a 1.89-fold increase in heart weight/tibial length ratio after 28 days of tamoxifen injection
• tamoxifen treated mice that show a distended abdomen lose weight and develop a disheveled appearance and decreased mobility
• edematous mice show an average body weight increase of 33%
• tamoxifen treated mice that do not develop severe peripheral edema exhibit a distended abdomen, suggesting presence of ascites

homeostasis/metabolism
• about 2/3 of male mice treated with tamoxifen at 8 weeks of age develop peripheral edema between 21 and 28 days of tamoxifen injection

integument
• tamoxifen treated mice that show a distended abdomen lose weight and develop a disheveled appearance and decreased mobility

muscle
• in tamoxifen treated mice
• however, myocyte hypertrophy is not seen
• both maximum and minimum dP/dt values are altered after 7 days of tamoxifen treatment, indicating a contractile defect affecting both contraction and relaxation phase of the heart beat
• both maximum and minimum dP/dt values are altered after 7 days of tamoxifen treatment, indicating a contractile defect affecting both contraction and relaxation phase of the heart beat
