Phosphorylation of NLRP6 at Serine 27 site is critical for NLRP6 inflammasome activation and neurological impairment in ischemic stroke [PDF]

open access: yesCell Communication and Signaling
Nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor pyrin domain-containing 6 (NLRP6) is a pattern recognition receptor that is highly expressed in microglia and forms a cytosolic inflammasome to aggravate neuroinflammation and neuronal injury during

Francisella novicida Mutant XWK4 Triggers Robust Inflammasome Activation Favoring Infection

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Bacterial infection tendentiously triggers inflammasome activation, whereas the roles of inflammasome activation in host defense against diverse infections remain unclear.

The role of NLRP3 inflammasome in the pathogenesis of rheumatic disease

open access: yesAutoimmunity, 2022
Inflammasome is a molecular platform that is formed in the cytosolic compartment to mediate host immune responses to infection and cellular damage. Inflammasome can activate caspase-1, leading to the maturation of two inflammatory cytokines interleukin ...

Inhibition of NLRP3 Inflammasome: A Prospective Target for the Treatment of Ischemic Stroke

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2020
Stroke is one of the major devastating diseases with no effective medical therapeutics. Because of the high rate of disability and mortality among stroke patients, new treatments are urgently required to decrease brain damage following a stroke.

Neutrophils Facilitate Prolonged Inflammasome Response in the DAMP-Rich Inflammatory Milieu

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Aberrant inflammasome activation contributes to various chronic inflammatory diseases; however, pyroptosis of inflammasome-active cells promptly terminates local inflammasome response. Molecular mechanisms underlying prolonged inflammasome signaling thus

Suppression of Inflammasome Activation by IRF8 and IRF4 in cDCs Is Critical for T Cell Priming

open access: yesCell Reports, 2020
Summary: Inflammasome activation leads to pyroptotic cell death, thereby eliminating the replicative niche of virulent pathogens. Although inflammasome-associated cytokines IL-1β and IL-18 have an established role in T cell function, whether inflammasome

A novel mechanism for NLRP3 inflammasome activation

open access: yesMetabolism Open, 2022
The NLRP3 inflammasome, as an important component of the innate immune system, plays vital roles in various metabolic disorders. It has been reported that the NLRP3 inflammasome can be activated by a broad range of distinct stimuli, such as K+ efflux ...

Tivantinib alleviates inflammatory diseases by directly targeting NLRP3

open access: yesiScience, 2023
Summary: NLRP3 inflammasome-mediated immune responses are involved in the pathogenesis of multiple inflammatory diseases, but few clinical drugs are identified that directly target the NLRP3 inflammasome to treat these diseases to date.

Cryo-sensitive aggregation triggers NLRP3 inflammasome assembly in cryopyrin-associated periodic syndrome

open access: yeseLife, 2022
Cryopyrin-associated periodic syndrome (CAPS) is an autoinflammatory syndrome caused by mutations of NLRP3 gene encoding cryopyrin. Familial cold autoinflammatory syndrome, the mildest form of CAPS, is characterized by cold-induced inflammation induced ...

C3a/C3aR synergies with TGF-β to promote epithelial-mesenchymal transition of renal tubular epithelial cells via the activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome

open access: yesJournal of Translational Medicine, 2023
Background Complement component 3a and its receptor (C3a/C3aR) and the nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor protein-3 (NLRP3) inflammasome contribute to epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT).
