Abstract
⺠Staphylococcus aureus pneumonia induces alveolar mitochondrial biogenesis in mice. Nrf2â/â mice show impaired lung mitochondrial biogenesis compared to WT mice. ⺠Type II cells are a main site of Nrf2-regulated alveolar mitochondrial biogenesis. ⺠Nrf2â/â mice have low type II cell anti-inflammatory IL-10 and SOCS3 responses. ⺠Nrf2 links alveolar mitochondrial biogenesis to local IL-10 and SOCS3 synthesis.
