Metformin 0-9 dynamin 1-like Mus musculus 80-84 27737949-5 2017 In high glucose-exposed endothelial cells, metformin treatment and adenoviral overexpression of constitutively active AMPK downregulated mitochondrial superoxide, lowered levels of dynamin-related protein (Drp1) and its translocation into mitochondria, and prevented mitochondrial fragmentation. Metformin 43-52 dynamin 1-like Mus musculus 206-210 27737949-6 2017 In contrast, AMPK-alpha2 deficiency abolished the effects of metformin on Drp1 expression, oxidative stress, and atherosclerosis in diabetic ApoE-/-/AMPK-alpha2-/- mice, indicating that metformin exerts an antiatherosclerotic action in vivo via the AMPK-mediated blockage of Drp1-mediated mitochondrial fission. Metformin 61-70 dynamin 1-like Mus musculus 74-78 27737949-6 2017 In contrast, AMPK-alpha2 deficiency abolished the effects of metformin on Drp1 expression, oxidative stress, and atherosclerosis in diabetic ApoE-/-/AMPK-alpha2-/- mice, indicating that metformin exerts an antiatherosclerotic action in vivo via the AMPK-mediated blockage of Drp1-mediated mitochondrial fission. Metformin 61-70 dynamin 1-like Mus musculus 275-279 27737949-8 2017 These findings show that metformin attenuated the development of atherosclerosis by reducing Drp1-mediated mitochondrial fission in an AMPK-dependent manner. Metformin 25-34 dynamin 1-like Mus musculus 93-97
