As α-lipoic acid (ALA) has been shown to have various beneficial effects, including mitoprotective, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory effects, we hypothesized that it may exhibit therapeutic effects in pulmonary fibrosis. Therefore, in the present study, we used a murine model of silicosis to investigate whether supplementation with exogenous ALA could attenuate
