dimethylxanthenone-4-acetic acid (DMXAA) group, with 12 mice in each group. Additionally, 12 male
C57BL/6J mice were used as the control group. All mice were administered via oral gavage once daily for 8
weeks. Cardiac function was assessed using the Vevo 770 ultrasound system; myocardial pathology was
examined via HE staining; mitochondrial ultrastructure in cardiomyocytes was observed using transmission
electron microscopy; the proportion of cardiomyocytes without reduced mitochondrial membrane potential was
detected using JC-1 staining; reactive oxygen species (ROS) content in myocardial tissue was measured using
2',7'-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate (DCFH-DA) staining; adenosine triphosphate (ATP) content in
myocardial tissue was determined using a commercial kit; and Western blot was performed to detect the protein
expression levels of mitofusin-2 (MFN2), dynamin-related protein 1 (DRP1), cGAS, STING, interferon-β (IFN-
β), CXC chemokine ligand 10 (CXCL10), and interleukin-6 (IL-6) in myocardial tissue. The aim was to observe
the effect of Atr-I on myocardial mitochondrial function in DCM mice. The results showed that low- and high-
dose Atr-I (60 mg/kg, 240 mg/kg) intervention improved cardiac function, alleviated cardiomyocyte hypertrophy
and disordered muscle fiber arrangement, ameliorated mitochondrial ultrastructure in cardiomyocytes, reduced
ROS content and the protein expression levels of DRP1, cGAS, STING, IFN-β, CXCL10, and IL-6 in myocardial
tissue, and increased the proportion of cardiomyocytes without reduced mitochondrial membrane potential, as
well as ATP content and MFN2 protein expression in myocardial tissue. However, DMXAA attenuated the
beneficial effects of high-dose Atr-I on myocardial mitochondrial function in DCM mice. In conclusion, Atr-I
may improve myocardial mitochondrial function in DCM mice by inhibiting the cGAS/STING pathway.
