摘要

Previous histological findings, physiological data, and behavioral observations on the A-type lamin knockout mouse (Lmna~l~) suggest that important aspects of this model resemble the human Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy (EDMD) phenotype. The main goal of our experiments was to study skeletal and cardiac muscle function in this murine model to obtain the semiquantitative data needed for more detailed comparisons with human EDMD defects. Measurements of the mechanical properties of preparations from two different skeletal muscle groups, the sdleus and the diaphragm, were made in vitro. In addition, records of the electrocardiogram, and measurements of heart rate variability were obtained; and phasic contractions (unloaded shortening) of enzymatically isolated ventricular myocytes were monitored. Soleus muscles from Lwna~l~ mice produced less force and work than control preparations. In contrast, force and work production in strips of diaphragm were not changed significantly. Lead II electrocardiograms from conscious, restrained Lmna~i~ mice revealed slightly decreased heart rates, with significant prolongations of PQ, QRS, and 'QT' intervals compared with those from control recordings. These ECG changes resemble some aspects of the ECG records from humans with EDMD; however, the cardiac phenotype in this Lmna~l~ mouse model appears to be less well-defined/ developed. Ventricular myocytes isolated from Lmna~~ mice exhibited impaired contractile responses, particularly when superfused with the beta-adrenergic agonist, isoproterenol (1 uM). This deficit was more pronounced in myocytes isolated from the left ventride(s) than in myocytes from the right vcntricle(s). In summary, tissues from the L mna~l~ mouse exhibit a number of skeletal and cardiac muscle deficiencies, some of which are similar to those which have been reported in studies of human EDMD.
