Conclusions: TMAO induces mitochondrial damage in LEPCs via MnSOD suppression, which leads to cell dysfunction, proinflammatory activation, and autophagic cell death in vitro and impaired LEPCs-mediated revascularization in vivo. Overexpression of MnSOD restores TMAO-induced LEPCs dysfunction and fu...
