USP28-regulated mitochondrial homeostasis mechanism that involves the PPARα-Mfn2 axis in diabetic hearts [ChIP-seq]
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: The majority of diabetics are susceptible to cardiac dysfunction and heart failure, while conventional drug therapy cannot correct diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) progression. Herein, we assessed the potential role and therapeutic value of ubiquitin-specific protease 28 (USP28) on the metabolic vulnerability of DCM. PPARα-/- in the db/db background mice were constructed to check the mechanism of USP28 in vivo. Inducible cardiac-specific deletion of Mfn2 in the db/db background mice was utilized to evaluate USP28-mediated cardioprotection. chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assays revealed that PPARα promote mitofusin 2 (Mfn2) transcription, thereby impeding mitochondrial morphofunctional defects.
