Figure 2. Autonomic indices and cardiac function in young (10-12 wks), untreated and losartan-treated C57BL/6 and Sgcd−/− mice.
Panel A. Sgcd−/− mice exhibited severe autonomic dysfunction at a young age, which was prevented by treatment with losartan. Results from untreated (n = 5) and treated (n = 6) C57BL/6 mice, and untreated (n = 7) and treated (n = 6) Sgcd−/− mice are shown. *P<0.05, Sgcd−/− vs. C57BL/6 mice; †P<0.05, vs. untreated mice. Panel B. Left ventricular ejection fraction and end diastolic volume were not significantly different in Sgcd−/− vs. C57BL/6 mice, and were not affected by losartan treatment.
