cardiovascular system
abnormal trabecula carnea morphology ( J:277399 )
• mice exhibit deep trabeculations in the left ventricular wall at P3
• mice show a significant difference in trabecular complexity compared to controls
thin ventricular wall ( J:277399 )
• decrease in the apical wall thickness
• however, no changes in left ventricular free wall thickness
increased response of heart to induced stress ( J:277399 )
• mice exhibit a reduction in cardiac function after transverse aortic constriction compared to wild-type mice, with incomplete penetrance
• however, cardiac function by echocardiography is normal at baseline in adult mice

homeostasis/metabolism
increased response of heart to induced stress ( J:277399 )
• mice exhibit a reduction in cardiac function after transverse aortic constriction compared to wild-type mice, with incomplete penetrance

muscle
abnormal trabecula carnea morphology ( J:277399 )
