Abstract excerpt
Genetically-manipulated mice harboring an alpha-myosin heavy chain Arg403Gln missense mutation (alpha-MHC403/+) display a phenotype characteristic of familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (FHC). Male and female (30 +/- 8 week old) heterozygous alpha-MHC403/+ mice and litter-mate controls were evaluated using a surface electrocardiogram (ECG) and an in vivo cardiac electrophysiology study (EPS). Wild type animals...
