SENP1-Sirt3 axis regulates type II alveolar epithelial cell activity to confer resistance against oxidative damage in lung tissue by Mingming Zhang, Xin Lin, Jianli He, Yong Zuo, Qiuju Fan, Innocent Agida, Hongsheng Tan, Caiying Zhu, Jinke Cheng, Tianshi Wang

“…In bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis models, activating the SENP1-Sirt3 axis via Sirt3 SUMOylation site mutation (Sirt3 K223R) reduced Superoxide Dismutase 2 (SOD2) acetylation, thereby lowering mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (mtROS) accumulation and apoptosis. This intervention increased AT2 cell proliferation and differentiation into alveolar type I cells while reducing Keratin 8 (KRT8)+ transitional cell number, a profibrotic population. …”
