Adverse physiologic effects of Western diet on right ventricular structure and function: role of lipid accumulation and metabolic therapy

Little is known about the impact of metabolic syndrome (MS) on right ventricular (RV) structure and function. We hypothesized that mice fed a Western diet (WD) would develop RV lipid accumulation and impaired RV function, which would be ameliorated with metformin. Male C57/Bl6 mice were fed a WD or...
