Impaired Lung BCAA Metabolism Promotes Ferroptosis and Resultant Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension-Associated Hepatopathy
2025-09-03
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> Dysregulated branched chain amino acid (BCAA) homeostasis occurs in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) as BCAA metabolites accumulate and cause metabolic alterations in pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMC). In other cells, altered BCAA metabolism promotes ferroptosis, a PAH-inducing metabolic pathway. However, the interplay between BCAAs, lung ferroptosis, and PAH is unexplored, as...
