Polydatin Alleviates APAP‐Induced Hepatotoxicity by Targeting C/EBPβ to Suppress the NLRP3 Inflammasome Signaling Pathway

open access: yesiNew Medicine, EarlyView.
PD alleviates APAP‐induced ALI by inhibiting the NLRP3 inflammasome signaling pathway. C/EBPβ is identified as a direct target via multimethod validation. PD promotes the deacetylation of C/EBPβ via Sirt1. The Sirt1/C/EBPβ/NLRP3 signaling axis is defined for PD's hepatoprotective effect.
