7 Nov 2024
Abstract excerpt
Although the exact role of mitophagy in the pathogenesis of diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) caused by type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) remains controversial, recent studies revealed inhibition of mitophagy exacerbates cardiac injury in DCM. The zinc transporter ZIP7 has been reported to be upregulated by high glucose in cardiomyocytes and ZIP7 upregulation leads to inhibition of mitophagy in mouse hearts in the...
