OM-85 is an immunomodulator of interferon-β production and inflammasome activity. [PDF]
The inflammasome-IL-1 axis and type I interferons (IFNs) have been shown to exert protective effects upon respiratory tract infections. Conversely, IL-1 has also been implicated in inflammatory airway pathologies such as asthma and chronic obstructive ...

From Genome to Geroscience: How DNA Damage Shapes Systemic Decline
Persistent DNA damage triggers systemic secretory responses including damage‐associated molecular patterns (DAMPs), the senescence‐associated secretory phenotype (SASP), and extracellular vesicles (EVs). This non‐cell‐autonomous signaling disrupts intercellular communication, driving organism‐wide dysfunction and aging, and offering new therapeutic ...

Novel role of PKR in inflammasome activation and HMGB1 release [PDF]
The inflammasome regulates release of caspase activation-dependent cytokines, including IL-1β, IL-18, and high-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1)1-5. During the course of studying HMGB1 release mechanisms, we discovered an important role of double-stranded RNA

Abstract Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is a widely used kidney replacement therapy for patients with end‐stage kidney disease. Nevertheless, long‐term exposure to PD fluid can damage the peritoneal membrane, leading to ultrafiltration failure and, ultimately, discontinuation of PD.

The Therapeutic Potential of Andrographolide and Its Derivatives in Inflammatory Diseases
ABSTRACT Andrographolide, a diterpenoid component found in traditional Chinese medicine Andrographis paniculata, is known as a natural antibiotic and can be used to treat inflammatory lesions of various systemic diseases. In recent years, andrographolide derivatives have been continuously synthesized and have shown good anti‐inflammatory ...

▪ Background and Purpose NLRP3 is up‐regulated in inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. The development of NLRP3 inhibitors is challenged by the identification of compounds with distinct mechanisms of action avoiding side effects and toxicity. Triptolide is a natural product with multiple anti‐inflammatory activities, but a narrow therapeutic window ...

Taking AIM at Influenza: The Role of the AIM2 Inflammasome
Influenza A viruses (IAV) are dynamic and highly mutable respiratory pathogens that present persistent public health challenges. Inflammasomes, as components of the innate immune system, play a crucial role in the early detection and response to infections. They react to viral pathogens by triggering inflammation to promote immune defences and initiate

A High-Protein Diet Promotes Atrial Arrhythmogenesis via Absent-in-Melanoma 2 Inflammasome
High-protein diets (HPDs) offer health benefits, such as weight management and improved metabolic profiles. The effects of HPD on cardiac arrhythmogenesis remain unclear.
