The NLRP3 inflammasome is activated by nanoparticles through ATP, ADP and adenosine.

, 2015
International audienceThe NLR pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome is a major component of the innate immune system, but its mechanism of activation by a wide range of molecules remains largely unknown.

Accurate Transcription Factor Activity Inference to Decipher Cell Identity from Single‐Cell Transcriptomic Data with MetaTF

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
MetaTF is a new computational framework that uses single‐cell RNA sequencing (scRNA‐seq) data to infer transcription factor activity with the aim to help in deciphering cells identity starting from a heterogeneous population, and apply it to characterize mouse hematopoietic stem cells and breast cancer epithelial cells, thus identifying a novel subset ...

Activity-dependent release of Adenosine: a critical re-evaluation of mechanism [PDF]

, 2008
Adenosine is perhaps the most important and universal modulator in the brain. The current consensus is that it is primarily produced in the extracellular space from the breakdown of previously released ATP.

Blockade of the Adenosine 2A Receptor Mitigates the Cardiomyopathy Induced by Loss of Plakophilin-2 Expression

Frontiers in Physiology, 2018
Background: Mutations in plakophilin-2 (PKP2) are the most common cause of familial Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Cardiomyopathy, a disease characterized by ventricular arrhythmias, sudden death, and progressive fibrofatty cardiomyopathy. The relation

Inhibition of RACK1‐Mediated NLRP3 Oligomerization (Active Conformation) Ameliorates Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Schematic diagram showing the potential mechanism of bigelovin on the activation of NLRP3 inflammasome Bigelovin may inhibit activated protein C kinase 1 (RACK1) by directly binding with cys168 of RACK1. Bigelovin thus prevents oligomerization of NLRP3 (NLRP3 active conformation) and subsequent assembly of NLRP3 inflammasome, blocking the activation of
