Scale bar: 125 μm. (C) Average end diastolic dimensions (EDD) and (D) average end systolic dimensions (ESD) reveal marked enlargement and resultant decrease in (E) average fractional shortening (FS) in Df(2R)Exel7094 and PBac{RB}sandman e00867 in comparison with w1118. The ubiquitous and cardiac-specific overexpression of sandman in the context of Df(2R)Exel7094 (Df(2R)Exel7094; actin>sandman and Df(2R)Exel7094; tinC>sandman, respectively) results in rescue of cardiac dimensions in comparison with Df(2R)Exel7094 and PBac{RB}sandman e00867. Statistical comparisons made using 1-way ANOVA with Bonferroni’s test for multiple comparisons. *P < 0.0001 versus w1118; †P < 0.0001 versus Df(2R)Exel7094 and PBac{RB}sandman e00867.](https://pub-med-central-images-cdn.bioz.com/pub_med_central_ids_ending_with_5385/pmc06205385/pmc06205385__jci-128-95945-g093.jpg)
