The hearts from HFD B6 mice display morphologic pathologies. a The echocardiography determined left ventricular (LV) mass normalized to tibia length is larger in the HFD B6 mice when compared to the CD B6 mice (p = 0.015, N > 8). b Similarly, the immunofluorescent determined cell size is larger in the HFD B6 mice when compared to the three other mouse groups (B6 CD versus B6 HFD, p = 0.025, B6 HFD versus MRL HFD p = 0.032, N > 3). c Representative cell sizes visualized by γ-sarcoglycan staining. d, e Echocardiography also revealed increases in left ventricle anterior wall during diastole and systole in the HFD B6 hearts compared to the CD B6 hearts (N > 8, bars indicate p < 0.05)
