Article Synopsis
- The peroxisome is an organelle that plays a key role in various metabolic functions, and PEX3 is a crucial regulator of these processes.
- Researchers found that knocking out PEX3 specifically in heart cells (Pex3-KO) leads to an imbalance in redox homeostasis and disrupts heart cell growth and development.
- The study suggests that PEX3 aids in heart repair by affecting plasmalogen metabolism and influencing the AKT/GSK3β signaling pathway, indicating it could be an innovative target for therapies aimed at repairing heart damage.
