[Retracted] Oxidized LDL Disrupts Metabolism and Inhibits Macrophage Survival by Activating a miR-9/Drp1/Mitochondrial Fission Signaling Pathway
Figure 1
ox-LDL activates mitochondrial fission and inhibits mitochondrial fusion in macrophages. (a–c) Immunofluorescence assay of mitochondrial morphology. Average mitochondrial length and ratio of fragmented mitochondria were measured in response to ox-LDL treatment. (d–i) RNA was collected from cells, and Mff, Fis1, Drp1, Mfn1, Mfn2, and Opa1 transcription was measured. .
