Fusion and fission events of cultured adult cardiomyocytes. A normal mitochondria. B Fusion of 2–3 mitochondria to form giant mitochondria mediated by Drp1 inhibition. Arrow denotes the area were mitochondria fused. C Mfn1/2 (mitofusins 1 and 2) knockout causes mitochondrial fragmentation (arrow). Note that the mitochondria are rounder and their size decreased. Scale bars, 0.5 μm. (Fig. 3: Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology by Frontiers Media SA [36].
