Mitochondrial citrate accumulation triggers senescence of alveolar epithelial cells contributing to pulmonary fibrosis in mice
1 Jun 2023
Abstract excerpt
Alveolar epithelial cell (AEC) senescence is implicated in the pathogenesis of pulmonary fibrosis (PF). However, the exact mechanism underlying AEC senescence during PF remains poorly understood. Here, we reported an unrecognized mechanism for AEC senescence during PF. We found that, in bleomycin (BLM)-induced PF mice, the expressions of isocitrate dehydrogenase 3α (Idh3α) and citrate carrier (CIC) were...
