This review highlights recent progress in nanocarriers targeting pattern recognition receptors (PRRs), including Toll‐like and NOD‐like receptors, for enhancing the treatment of bacterial sepsis and related complications. These nanomedicines deliver antibiotics and anti‐inflammatory agents while modulating immune responses.

The interaction between inflammasomes and autophagy is crucial for maintaining the balance between necessary immune responses and the avoidance of excessive inflammation. Autophagy can inhibit the activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome by degrading endogenous activators, such as damaged mitochondria that produce reactive oxygen species (ROS), as well as ...

The AIM2 inflammasome is critical for innate immunity to Francisella tularensis. [PDF]
Francisella tularensis, the causative agent of tularemia, infects host macrophages, which triggers production of the proinflammatory cytokines interleukin 1beta (IL-1beta) and IL-18. We elucidate here how host macrophages recognize F.
