FBR2 modulates ferroptosis via the SIRT3/p53 pathway to ameliorate pulmonary fibrosis by Yu Cheng, Yang Jiao, Wan Wei, Mengjia Kou, Yaodong Cai, Yang Li, Hao Li, Tonghua Liu

“…FBR2 decreased collagen deposition in lung tissue, as shown by Masson’s staining and IHC detection of Col-I and α-SMA, confirming its anti-fibrotic effects. It also reduced iron and MDA levels in lung tissue, increased GSH-Px activity, improved mitochondrial morphology, and enhanced the expression of GPX4 and SLC7A11, indicating its ferroptosis-inhibitory capacity. …”
