Speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) has been applied to the evaluation of cardiac contraction dysfunction. However, there were few studies on alteration of global and regional STE parameters in the process of myocardial hypertrophy and heart failure. In this study, STE was applied to evaluate the global and regional cardiac function under heart failure and hypertrophy in the mice model of pressure overload. Adult mice were subjected to mild or severe aortic banding with a 25 Gauge (G) or 27 G needle. After surgery, STE and conventional echocardiography were used in the sham group (n=10), mild trans-aortic banding (TAB) group (n=14) and severe TAB group (n=10) for 8 weeks. The results showed that the mice subjected to severe TAB showed a significant change in fractional shortening (FS), left ventricular (LV) mass, and left ventricular end diastolic diameter (LVEDD) (P0.05 for both). STE analysis revealed that longitudinal strain (LS) was significantly decreased in the severe TAB group as compared with the sham and mild TAB groups (P
