mortality/aging

cardiovascular system
• massive enlargement and dilation of all four cardiac chambers
• ventricles show mild to moderate cellular edema with little or no myocyte loss
• spontaneous cardiac decompensation is seen in 3 of 6 double mutants

respiratory system
• lung/body weight ratio averages 40% more than in controls
• large bilateral pleural effusions
• 3 of 6 double mutants become tachypneic between 11 and 14 weeks of age
• 3 of 6 double mutants develop severe respiratory distress between 11 and 14 weeks of age

muscle

homeostasis/metabolism
• large bilateral pleural effusions

growth/size/body
• massive enlargement and dilation of all four cardiac chambers
• lung/body weight ratio averages 40% more than in controls

phenotype observed in females
phenotype observed in males
N normal phenotype
cardiovascular system
• mice exhibit an increased interventricular septal thickness compared to in wild-type mice
• heart weight is 25% greater than in controls and cardiomyocyte dimensions are larger
• mice exhibit an increase in left ventricle posterior wall thickness compared to in wild-type mice
• fractional shortening is depressed (J:41949)
• the normal beta-adrenergic (via dobutamine) augmentation of cardiac contractility and relaxation is absent in mutants (J:41949)
• reduction in contractility of left ventricle
• heart rate is slower during conscious blood pressure measurements and anesthetized echocardiographic studies
