Background Obesity is associated with dyslipidemia, which leads to elevated triglyceride
and ceramide levels, apoptosis and compromised cardiac function. Methods To determine
the role of high-fat diet-induced obesity on cardiomyocyte function, weanling male Sprague–
Dawley rats were fed diets incorporating 10% of kcal or 45% of kcal from fat. Mechanical
function of ventricular myocytes was evaluated including peak shortening (PS), time-to-PS
(TPS), time-to-90% relengthening (TR 90) and maximal velocity of shortening and�…
