Genetic deletion of Erk1 improves left ventricular function in LmnaH222P/H222P mice at 16 weeks of age. (A) Representative M-mode transthoracic echocardiographic tracings from 16-week-old male Lmna+/+/Erk1+/+ (diamonds), Lmna+/+/Erk1−/− (squares), LmnaH222P/H222P/Erk1+/+ (circles) and LmnaH222P/H222P/Erk1−/− (triangles) mice. (B) Graphs showing mean LVEDD, LVESD and FS in 16-week-old male Lmna+/+/Erk1+/+, Lmna+/+/Erk1−/−, LmnaH222P/H222P/Erk1+/+ and LmnaH222P/H222P/Erk1−/− mice. Values for each individual mouse as well as means (long horizontal bars) and standard errors are shown. ##P < 0.005; ###P < 0.0005; *P < 0.05; n.s., not significant. (C) Expression of Nppa mRNA in hearts from 16-week-old Lmna+/+/Erk1+/+, Lmna+/+/Erk1−/−, LmnaH222P/H222P/Erk1+/+ and LmnaH222P/H222P/Erk1−/− mice. Values represent fold change compared with Nppa mRNA in hearts of Lmna+/+/Erk1+/+ mice and are given as means ± standard errors in Lmna+/+/Erk1+/+ (n = 6), Lmna+/+/Erk1−/− (n = 6), LmnaH222P/H222P/Erk1+/+ (n = 5) and LmnaH222P/H222P/Erk1−/− (n = 6) mice. ###P < 0.0005; ***P < 0.0005; n.s., not significant. (D) Expression of Nppb mRNA in hearts from 16-week-old Lmna+/+/Erk1+/+, Lmna+/+/Erk1−/−, LmnaH222P/H222P/Erk1+/+ and LmnaH222P/H222P/Erk1−/− mice. Values represent fold change of Nppb mRNA in hearts of Lmna+/+/Erk1+/+ mice and are given as means ± standard errors in Lmna+/+/Erk1+/+ (n = 6), Lmna+/+/Erk1−/− (n = 6), LmnaH222P/H222P/Erk1+/+ (n = 5) and LmnaH222P/H222P/Erk1−/− (n = 6) mice. ###P < 0.0005; ***P < 0.0005; n.s., not significant.
