Phosphoglycerate mutase 1-mediated dephosphorylation and degradation of Dusp1 disrupt mitochondrial quality control and exacerbate endotoxemia-induced myocardial dysfunction.

ABSTRACT: Rationale: Endotoxemia, caused by lipopolysaccharides, triggers systemic inflammation and myocardial injury by disrupting mitochondrial homeostasis. This study examines the roles of dual specificity phosphatase 1 (Dusp1) and phosphoglycerate mutase family member 1 (Pgam1) in this process. Methods: This study utilized cardiomyocyte-specific Dusp1 knockout (Dusp1^Cko ) and transgenic (Dusp1^Tg ) mice, alongside Pgam1 knockout (Pgam1^Cko ) mice, subjected to LPS-induced endotoxemia. Echocardiography was performed to assess cardiac function. Mitochondrial integrity was evaluated using molecular techniques, including qPCR and Seahorse assays. Additionally, molecular docking studies and Western blot analyses were cond
