Caspase-1 inflammasomes in infection and inflammation [PDF]
Journal of Leukocyte Biology, 2007 AbstractNucleotide-binding and oligomerization domain-like receptors (NLRs) constitute a family of germline-encoded pattern-recognition receptors, which allow the host to respond rapidly to a wide variety of pathogenic microorganisms. Here, we discuss recent advances in the study of a subset of NLRs, which control the activation of caspase-1 through ...

Caspase-1 activation with concomitant degradation of cullin-1/5.
, 2021 (A)THP-1 macrophages were incubated with Eh (10:1 ratio) for increasing time (5 to 30 min) and or /with the pan-caspase inhibitor Z-VAD-fmk (100μM) and caspase-1 specific inhibitor Z-YVAD-fmk (100μM) for 1 h followed by stimulation with Eh (10:1 ratio ...

Thalidomide Inhibits Activation of Caspase-1 [PDF]
The Journal of Immunology, 2009 Abstract Thalidomide is an efficient anti-inflammatory and anti-angiogenic drug, but its therapeutic use is problematic due to a strong teratogenic activity. Nevertheless, thalidomide was approved for the treatment of inflammatory skin diseases and certain types of cancer, and it is extensively tested for several other indications ...

TNF-α Induces Caspase-1 Activation Independently of Simultaneously Induced NLRP3 in 3T3-L1 Cells [PDF]
, 2016 The intracellular cysteine protease caspase-1 is critically involved in obesity-induced inflammation in adipose tissue. A substantial body of evidence from immune cells, such as macrophages, has shown that caspase-1 activation depends largely on a ...

YopM Puts Caspase-1 on Ice [PDF]
Cell Host & Microbe, 2012 Caspase-1-mediated detection of pathogens is a potent arm of the innate immune system. LaRock and Cookson (2012) show that the Yersinia type III secretion effector, YopM, directly inhibits caspase-1.

Caspase-1 as a regulatory molecule of lipid metabolism [PDF]
Lipids in Health and Disease, 2020 AbstractCaspase-1 is an evolutionarily conserved inflammatory mediated enzyme that cleaves and activates inflammatory cytokines. It can be activated through the assembly of inflammasome and its major effect is to activate the pro-inflammatory cytokines; interleukin 1β (IL-1β) and interluekine-18 (IL-18).

Caspase‐1‐induced pyroptotic cell death [PDF]
Immunological Reviews, 2011 Summary: Programmed cell death is a necessary part of development and tissue homeostasis enabling the removal of unwanted cells. In the setting of infectious disease, cells that have been commandeered by microbial pathogens become detrimental to the host. When macrophages and dendritic cells are compromised in this way, they can be lysed by pyroptosis,

Pyroptosis was suppressed in ZIKV-infected macrophages with pro-caspase-1 knockdown.
, 2022 (A) Knockdown of pro-caspase-1 in THP-1 cells. Cell lysates were prepared from lentiviral vector-transduced THP-1 cell lines, expressing shRNA1, 2, or 3 targeting mRNA of pro-caspase-1, for western blot analyses with pro-caspase-1 antibody to examine the

Caspase‐1 is not involved in experimental hepatitis in mouse [PDF]
FEBS Letters, 1999 Experimental hepatitis induced by tumor necrosis factor in d‐(+)‐galactosamine‐sensitized mice or by an agonistic anti‐Fas antibody in normal mice is accompanied by dramatic apoptosis of hepatocytes. Apoptosis is the final result of activation of a cascade of caspases.
