Differential roles of caspase-1 and caspase-11 in infection and inflammation [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Caspase-1, also known as interleukin-1β (IL-1β)-converting enzyme (ICE), regulates antimicrobial host defense, tissue repair, tumorigenesis, metabolism and membrane biogenesis.

Caspase-1, but Not Caspase-3, Promotes Diabetic Nephropathy. [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2016
Glomerular apoptosis may contribute to diabetic nephropathy (dNP), but the pathophysiologic relevance of this process remains obscure. Here, we administered two partially disjunct polycaspase inhibitors in 8-week-old diabetic (db/db) mice: M-920 ...

Caspase-1 and Gasdermin D Afford the Optimal Targets with Distinct Switching Strategies in NLRP1b Inflammasome-Induced Cell Death

open access: yesResearch, 2022
Inflammasomes are essential complexes of innate immune system, which form the first line of host defense against pathogens. Mounting evidence accumulates that inflammasome signaling is highly correlated with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).

Cisplatin Induces Pyroptosis via Activation of MEG3/NLRP3/caspase-1/GSDMD Pathway in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer

open access: yesInternational Journal on Biological Sciences, 2021
Cisplatin (DDP) was reported to improve pathological complete response (pCR) rates in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) patients, however, the molecular mechanism still remains largely unknown.

Caspase-1: The inflammasome and beyond [PDF]

open access: yesInnate Immunity, 2013
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,

Comparison of Transcriptome Responses between Sogatella furcifera Females That Acquired Southern Rice Black-Streaked Dwarf Virus and Not

open access: yesInsects, 2022
The southern rice black-streaked dwarf virus (SRBSDV) is transmitted horizontally by Sogatella furcifera in a persistent, propagative manner. Exposure of S.

An Allosteric Circuit in Caspase-1 [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Molecular Biology, 2008
Structural studies of caspase-1 reveal that the dimeric thiol protease can exist in two states: in an on-state, when the active site is occupied, or in an off-state, when the active site is empty or when the enzyme is bound by a synthetic allosteric ligand at the dimer interface approximately 15 A from the active site.

Endosomal trafficking of two-pore K+ efflux channel TWIK2 to plasmalemma mediates NLRP3 inflammasome activation and inflammatory injury

open access: yeseLife, 2023
Potassium efflux via the two-pore K+ channel TWIK2 is a requisite step for the activation of NLRP3 inflammasome, however, it remains unclear how K+ efflux is activated in response to select cues.

Inflammasome, the Constitutive Heterochromatin Machinery, and Replication of an Oncogenic Herpesvirus

open access: yesViruses, 2021
The success of long-term host–virus partnerships is predicated on the ability of the host to limit the destructive potential of the virus and the virus’s skill in manipulating its host to persist undetected yet replicate efficiently when needed.
