Mitochondria Cripple without Krüppel

Abstract

Proper mitochondrial biogenesis and removal is crucial in maintaining a healthy heart. Liao et al now show key roles for cardiac KLF4 in mitochondrial homeostasis via its interaction with the ERR/PGC-1 module, and mitochondrial clearance via regulation of mitophagy. Disruption of KLF4 leads to profoundly injured mitochondria and cardiac failure.
