Deficiency in MICOS component Chchd3 Compromises Drosophila Heart Function via mitophagy, ROS and ER Stress
2026-08-19
Abstract excerpt
A pair of paralogs, Chchd3 and Chchd6, two components of mitochondrial contact site and cristae organizing system (MICOS), have been identified to be candidate pathogenetic genes in congenital heart disease (CHD). Previous research found that knockdown (KD) of the single Chchd3/6 (Chchd3) gene and other MICOS components in Drosophila impaired heart function, likely due to a deficit in mitochondrial organization, A...
