Abstract
⺠p53 was activated and damaged mitochondria were accumulated in ischemic myocardium. ⺠We found TIGAR was up-regulated by ischemic injury. ⺠TIGAR inhibited myocyte mitophagy by inactivating ROS signal to Bnip3. ⺠Accumulation of damaged mitochondria and cell death resulted in cardiac dysfunction. ⺠Dysregulation of mitochondrial quality by p53/TIGAR is a novel therapeutic target.
