Table 2. Morphometric measurements of heart weight (heart), liver weight (liver), and lung weight (lung) normalized to tibial length (TL).
Cont-Sham (n = 5) | Cont-TAC (n = 8) | MycKO-TAC (n = 8) | |
---|---|---|---|
Heart/TL (mg/mm) | 6.3±0.2 | 8.3±0.5* | 7.2±0.2* , # |
Liver/TL (mg/mm) | 83±5 | 78±4 | 76±2 |
Lung/TL (mg/mm) | 8.6±0.1 | 8.5±0.4 | 8.3±0.6 |
All weights are on wet organs. Values are means±SEM.
* = p<0.05 in the indicated group versus Sham;
# = p<0.05 MycKO-TAC versus Cont-TAC.
