SIRT1 and inflammation: This study investigated whether melatonin alleviates airway inflammation and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) through the melatonin receptor 1 (MT1)-Sirtuin 1 (Sirt1) signaling pathway and circadian clock regulation.<h4>Methods</h4>An ovalbumin (OVA)-induced mouse model of type 2 airway inflammation and cultured airway epithelial cells were used.
