SIRT3 and asthma: Song et al. found that Sirt3 expression was decreased in asthmatic mice, and overexpression of Sirt3 could reduce bronchial epithelial cell apoptosis, oxidative stress, and inflammation in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid which means that SIRT3 is involved in asthma and has the potential to be a target for the treatment of asthma [72].
