M-mode echocardiographic parameters showing effect of nicotine (2 mg/kg/d for 10 days, i.p.) on cardiac geometric and functional properties in FVB and MT mice. Panel A: Left ventricular end systolic diameter (LVESD); Panel B: Left ventricular end diastolic diameter (LVEDD); Panel C: End diastolic wall thickness; and Panel D: LV Fractional shortening. Mean ± SEM, n = 6 - 7 mice per group, *p < 0.05 vs. FVB group, # p < 0.05 vs. FVB+NIC group.
