Figure 1. Physical parameters of the db/db and age matched wild type (Wt) mice.

The averaged body weights of db/db and Wt group normalized to tibia (A), heart weights normalized to tibia (B) and body weight(C), H&E staining of db/db and Wt hearts (D), cross-sectional area of the heart (E), RV thickness (F), Septal wall thickness (G) and LV thickness (H) are presented. All values presented in the bar diagram are mean (±SEM n = 15–16) with *p≤0.05.
