Extended Data Fig. 3

a, qPCR of Kdm8 normalized to Rpl13a on 2-month-old control (Kdm8fl/fl) and mutant (Kdm8fl/fl;Myh6-Cre or Kdm8fl/fl;Nkx2-5-Cre) hearts. Error bars denote the mean + /- s.e.m. Data was analyzed by two-way ANOVA. n = 5 hearts per group. The experiment was repeated twice with similar results. b, Hearts of control and mutant mice at 2, 6, 20, and 30 months of age. Scale bar, 1 mm. c, Sections of 2, 6 and 30-month-old control and mutant hearts stained with H&E. Scale bar, 1 mm. d, Echocardiogram analysis of left ventricle (LV) ejection fraction, fractional shortening, diameter at end-systole and end-diastole, and isovolumetric relaxation time normalized to the time between heartbeats (IVRT/RR) in control and mutant mice. Error bars denote the mean + /- s.e.m. Data was analyzed by 2-way ANOVA with Sidak’s multiple comparison correction. n = 10 – 11 mice at 2, 4 and 6 months, n = 5 controls and 7 mutants at 20 months, and n = 3 controls and 4 mutants at end point (EP) (see Supplementary Table 2 for P values). * P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01, *** P < 0.001. e, Survival curve of control, and mutant mice analyzed by Log-rank (Mantel-Cox) test. n = 5 control mice and 9 mutants.
