DNM1L and heart failure: Here, we provide the first evidence that DOX reduces oxidative stress—induced mitochondrial fragmentation and depolarization in H9c2 cardiomyocytes and beneficially alters the expression of Mfn-2, OPA-1 and Drp-1 –the main regulators of mitochondrial fusion and fission—in our isoproterenol (ISO)–induced heart failure model, ultimately decreasing the severity of heart failure.
