Ferrostatin-1 specifically targets mitochondrial iron-sulfur clusters and aconitase to improve cardiac function in Sirtuin 3 cardiomyocyte knockout mice

Ferrostatin-1 specifically targets mitochondrial iron-sulfur clusters and aconitase to improve cardiac function in Sirtuin 3 cardiomyocyte knockout mice, Cantrell, Aubrey C. et al. Journal of Molecular and Cellular Cardiology, Volume 0, Issue 0. DOI:10.1016/j.yjmcc.2024.05.003 

Inhibition of ferroptosis ameliorated cardiac dysfunction by specifically targeting mitochondrial aconitase and iron‑sulfur clusters. Blockade of mitochondrial ferroptosis may be a novel therapeutic target for mitochondrial cardiomyopathies.
