cardiovascular system
• triglyceride levels in the heart are lower
• triglyceride and diacylglycerol levels in the heart are lower
• hearts contain a higher percentage of triglycerides with medium-chain fatty acids and lower percentage of triglycerides with long-chain and very-long-chain fatty acids
• lipid droplets are smaller and tend to be less numerous and are not closely associated with mitochondria in hearts
• however, no differences in other glycerolipid species or membrane lipids are seen in the heart
• fatty acid uptake is decreased in hearts
• the incorporation of fatty acids into triglycerides is reduced and the incorporation of fatty acids into phospholipids is increased in hearts
• however, no difference in the incorporation of fatty acids into phosphatidic acid and diglycerides in hearts is seen
• glucose uptake in hearts is 2-fold higher
• mice show a modest reduction in ejection fraction under baseline conditions
• however, mice show no differences in heart dimension or stroke volume under baseline conditions
• mice treated with beta-adrenergic agonist dobutamine to maximize the heart's capacity, show differences in diastolic dimensions and stroke volume compared to controls
• mice exhibit dysregulated metabolism in hearts following ischemia, with lower levels of C2 and C4 acylcarnitines after a myocardial infarction induced by ligation of the left anterior descending artery, indicating downregulation of fatty acid oxidation
• accumulation of glycogen is increased in the septum after a myocardial infarction

cellular
• glucose uptake in hearts is 2-fold higher
• mice show lower levels of C2 and C4 acylcarnitines after a myocardial infarction induced by ligation of the left anterior descending artery, indicating downregulation of fatty acid oxidation in response to infarction

homeostasis/metabolism
• triglyceride levels in the heart are lower
• mice treated with beta-adrenergic agonist dobutamine to maximize the heart's capacity, show differences in diastolic dimensions and stroke volume compared to controls
• mice exhibit dysregulated metabolism in hearts following ischemia, with lower levels of C2 and C4 acylcarnitines after a myocardial infarction induced by ligation of the left anterior descending artery, indicating downregulation of fatty acid oxidation
• accumulation of glycogen is increased in the septum after a myocardial infarction
• mice show lower levels of C2 and C4 acylcarnitines after a myocardial infarction induced by ligation of the left anterior descending artery, indicating downregulation of fatty acid oxidation in response to infarction

mortality/aging
• mice exhibit reduced survival after induced myocardial infarction, with mice starting to die at a much higher rate than wild-type mice 3 days after ischemia

muscle
• triglyceride levels in the heart are lower
• glucose uptake in hearts is 2-fold higher
• mice show a modest reduction in ejection fraction under baseline conditions
• however, mice show no differences in heart dimension or stroke volume under baseline conditions
