Sirtuin 3 Protects Lung Adenocarcinoma from Ferroptosis by Deacetylating and Stabilizing Mitochondrial Glutamate Transporter Solute Carrier Family 25 Member A22.

ABSTRACT: Solute carrier family 25 member A22 (SLC25A22) is a glutamate transporter in the inner mitochondrial membrane that is known to suppress ferroptosis in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Sirtuin 3 (SIRT3) is the main mitochondrial deacetylase, and we previously demonstrated that targeting SIRT3 sensitized glioblastoma to ferroptosis by promoting mitophagy and inhibiting SLC7A11. The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of SIRT3-mediated deacetylation of mitochondrial SLC25A22 on RAS-selective lethal 3 (RSL3)-induced ferroptosis in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). We found that the expression of SLC25A22 and SIRT3 had a high positive correlation and that their expression was greater in LUAD tissues than in adjacent tissues. The RSL3-induced ferroptosis of LUAD led to upregulation
