mortality/aging
• only 10% of mice at weaning were double heterozygotes suggesting partial embryonic or perinatal lethality

cardiovascular system
• some adult mice with atrial septal defects also display myocyte disarray
• left atrial dilation is seen
• 16% of double heterozygotes had atrial septal defects
• left ventricular wall thickness was decreased by 40%
• the left ventricle diastolic dimension is mildly but significantly increased
• some adult mice with atrial septal defects also display patches of fibrosis in the right ventricular myocardium
• signs of dilated cardiomyopathy are seen but no compensatory myocardial hypertrophy or change in heart weight are detected
• left ventricular systolic dimension was increased 47% and fractional shortening was decreased by 24%
