Model for differential liver regeneration after CCl4 injection in WT and TOP1mt KO mice. CCl4 administration triggers hepatocytes replication. Top1mt allows mtDNA and mitochondrial mass to increase proportionally to support liver regeneration. Lack of Top1mt limits mtDNA replication, leading to decreased mtDNA in daughter cells, reduced mitochondrial mass and ATP production, and delayed liver regeneration.
