SIRT1 Deficiency, Specifically in Fibroblasts, Decreases Apoptosis Resistance and Is Associated with Resolution of Lung-Fibrosis

In contrast to normal regenerating tissue, resistance to Fas- and FasL-positive T cell-induced apoptosis were detected in myofibroblasts from fibrotic-lungs of humans and mice following bleomycin (BLM) exposure. In this study we show, decreased FLIP expression in lung-tissues with resolution of BLM-...
