YopM Puts Caspase-1 on Ice [PDF]
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: The inflammasome and beyond [PDF]
Caspase-1 plays a fundamental role in innate immunity and in several important inflammatory diseases as the protease activates the pro-inflammatory cytokines proIL-1β and proIL-18. Caspase-1 itself is activated in different inflammasome complexes, which assemble in response to a variety of exogenous and endogenous stressors. More recently, pyroptosis,

Introduction: Some studies have found that probiotics can improve cognitive impairment in Alzheimer’s disease, although the specific molecular mechanism by which this occurs has not been reported.

Non-classical ProIL-1beta activation during mammary gland infection is pathogen-dependent but caspase-1 independent [PDF]
Infection of the mammary gland with live bacteria elicits a pathogen-specific host inflammatory response. To study these host-pathogen interactions wild type mice, NF-kappaB reporter mice as well as caspase-1 and IL-1beta knockout mice were ...

Molecular basis of caspase-1 polymerization and its inhibition by a new capping mechanism [PDF]
Inflammasomes are cytosolic caspase-1-activation complexes that sense intrinsic and extrinsic danger signals, and trigger inflammatory responses and pyroptotic cell death. Homotypic interactions among Pyrin domains and caspase recruitment domains (CARDs)

IL-1R and inflammasomes mediate early pulmonary protective mechanisms in respiratory brucella abortus infection [PDF]
Brucella spp. infection is frequently acquired through contaminated aerosols. The role of interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β) in the early pulmonary response to respiratory Brucella infection is unknown.

Lysophosphatidylcholine activates caspase-1 in microglia via a novel pathway involving two inflammasomes. [PDF]
Inflammasomes regulate microglial caspase-1 activation and subsequent neuroinflammatory processes in brain pathology. In the present study, we have identified inflammasomes causing caspase-1 activation following stimulation of microglia with ...

Nedd8 Regulates Inflammasome-Dependent Caspase-1 Activation [PDF]
Caspase-1 is activated by the inflammasome complex to process cytokines like interleukin-1β (IL-1β). Pro-caspase-1 consists of three domains, CARD, p20, and p10. Association of pro-caspase-1 with the inflammasome results in initiation of its autocatalytic activity, culminating in self-cleavage that generates catalytically active subunits (p10 and p20).

Summary: Canonical pyroptosis is type of programmed cell death depending on active caspase-1, and the inflammasome carries out caspase-1 activation. Here, we showed that docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) induced ovarian cancer cell deaths in caspase-1-dependent
