Myocardial CKIP-1 overexpression protects from simulated microgravity induced-the decline of cardiac function. Bodyweight (A), left ventricular mass (B), heart weight (C), and heart rate (D) of wild type (WT) and CKIP-1 transgenic (TG) mice after 28 days hindlimb unloading. (E,F) Echocardiographic assessment of fractional shortening (FS) and ejection factor (EF) of WT and CKIP-1 transgenic mice after 28 days hindlimb unloading. Ctrl, control group; HU, mice following 28 days of hindlimb unloading; WT, wild type mice, TG, cardiac specific CKIP-1 transgenic mice. Values are means ± SEM, n = 6, *P < 0.05.
