mTORC2 protects the heart from high-fat diet-induced cardiomyopathy through mitochondrial fission in Drosophila

High-fat diet (HFD)-induced obesity has become the major risk factor for the development of cardiovascular diseases, but the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. Here, we use Drosophila as a model to study the role of mTORC2 in HFD-induced mitochondrial fission and cardiac dysfunction. We...
