Knockdown ATG5 gene by rAAV9 alleviates doxorubicin-induced cardiac toxicity by inhibiting GATA4 autophagic degradation by Ai-Li Xu, Zheng Shen, Shi-Hao Wang, Hai-Yun Luan, Yong Xu, Ze-Chun Kang, Zi-Qi Liao, Jie Liu, Xiao-Lei Duan, Wei-Hua Bian, Hui Sun, Xin Xie

“…We demonstrated that genetic ATG5 knockdown or autophagy inhibition by chemical inhibitors increased GATA4 protein expression, which was reduced by ATG5 overexpression or autophagy activator in vitro and in vivo, suggesting that ATG5-mediated autophagy promoted GATA4 degradation. Moreover, enforced GATA4 re-expression significantly counteracted the toxic effects of ATG5 on DOX-treated hearts. …”
