Ventricular dimensions did not differ significantly between young WT and GPR55^−/− mice, however mature GPR55^−/− mice were characterised by significant myocardial remodelling; including a reduction in left ventricular (LV) free wall thickness, myocardial nuclei number, and HW∶BW, and increased collagen deposition. Data is expressed as mean±s.e.m. (n = 14–15).
