Article Synopsis
- Heart failure due to heat stress is a significant concern for aquatic ectotherms, and mitochondrial dysfunction may play a key role in this issue.
- The study focused on the thermal sensitivity of cardiac mitochondria in three-spined stickleback fish, examining factors like temperature, fatty acid composition, and age.
- Results showed that while temperature strongly affected mitochondrial respiration, fish age also influenced it, revealing higher EPA levels in older fish but no direct correlation with critical thermal maximum (CTmax).
