SIRT3 Deficiency Promotes Lung Endothelial Pyroptosis Through Impairing Mitophagy to Activate NLRP3 Inflammasome During Sepsis-Induced Acute Lung Injury

Abstract excerpt

Acute lung injury (ALI) is a major cause of death in bacterial sepsis due to endothelial inflammation and endothelial permeability defects. Mitochondrial dysfunction is recognized as a key mediator in the pathogenesis of sepsis-induced ALI. Sirtuin 3 (SIRT3) is a histone protein deacetylase involved in preservation of mitochondrial function, which has been demonstrated in our previous study. Here, we investigated...
