We have demonstrated that cardiomyocyte SIRT3 deficiency causes mitochondrion-specific acetylation and impairment of frataxin and ferroportin potentially via downregulation of HIF-2α. Our results suggest that the SIRT3-ferroptosis pathway may be a novel target for the mitochondrial cardiomyopathy of FRDA.
