PLIN5 Suppresses Lipotoxicity and Ferroptosis in Cardiomyocyte via Modulating PIR/NF-κB Axis

Cardiomyocyte lipotoxicity and ferroptosis are the key to the development of diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM). Perilipin 5 (PLIN5) is perceived as a significant target of DCM. This study aimed to focus on the role and mechanism of PLIN5 on lipotoxicity and ferroptosis in DCM.Following transfection, mouse cardiomyocytes HL-1 were induced by 0.1 mM palmitic acid (PA) to set up lipotoxic cardiomyocyte models. The cell viability and lipid accumulation were evaluated by cell counting kit-8 assay and Oil red O staining, respectively. Ferrous ion (Fe
