RIPK3 Induces Cardiomyocyte Necroptosis via Inhibition of AMPK-Parkin-Mitophagy in Cardiac Remodelling after Myocardial Infarction

Figure 2

Genetic ablation of Ripk3 enhanced the cardiac function and survival of MI mice. (a–d) Cardiac function is evaluated through echocardiography (). Data are shown as the , . LVEF: left-ventricular ejection fraction; LVFS: left-ventricular fractional shortening; LVEDd: left ventricular end-diastolic diameter; LVESd: left ventricular end-systolic diameter. (e) Survival of WT or Ripk3-/- mice treated with sham or MI surgery (), vs. Sham+WT group, # vs. MI+WT group.
