Consistent with an iron-sulfur cluster defect, SLC25A39/40 knock out cells displayed reduced activity of the enzyme aconitase, in which iron sulfur clusters function in both substrate binding and catalysis (Fig 4f)
89 The exact mechanism is unknown but with the existing evidence, it is reported that metformin acts by elevating NO availability, restricting interstitial fibrosis and deposition of AGE products, and restraining apoptosis of cardiomyocytes leading to diminished cardiac remodeling, and these effects conserve the systolic/diastolic functions of left ventricle hence minimizing the propensity to cause heart failure
