TRPV1 channel mediates NLRP3 inflammasome-dependent neuroinflammation in microglia

open access: yesCell Death and Disease, 2021
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease in the central nervous system (CNS). The NLRP3 inflammasome is considered an important regulator of immunity and inflammation, both of which play a critical role in MS.

Dihydrotanshinone I Specifically Inhibits NLRP3 Inflammasome Activation and Protects Against Septic Shock In Vivo

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2021
The abnormal activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome is closely related to the occurrence and development of many inflammatory diseases. Targeting the NLRP3 inflammasome has been considered an efficient therapy to treat infections.

The E3 Ubiquitin Ligase TRIM65 Negatively Regulates Inflammasome Activation Through Promoting Ubiquitination of NLRP3

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
The dysregulation of NLRP3 inflammasome plays a critical role in pathogenesis of various human inflammatory diseases, thus NLRP3 inflammasome activation must be tightly controlled at multiple levels.

C646 Protects Against DSS-Induced Colitis Model by Targeting NLRP3 Inflammasome

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2021
Numerous pieces of evidence have identified that the NLRP3 inflammasome plays a pivotal role in the development and pathogenesis of colitis. Targeting the NLRP3 inflammasome represents a potential therapeutic treatment.

AP-1 signaling pathway promotes pro-IL-1β transcription to facilitate NLRP3 inflammasome activation upon influenza A virus infection

open access: yesVirulence, 2022
NLRP3 inflammasome mainly controls interleukin-1β (IL-1β) secretion, leading to cell death called pyroptosis constituting a major antiviral host defense and inflammatory diseases upon viral infection.

Deubiquitination and Activation of the NLRP3 Inflammasome by UCHL5 in HCV-Infected Cells

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2021
Chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection induces liver inflammation that can lead to fibrosis, cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Inflammation is the outcome of the action of proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines, including interleukin-1 ...

Inflammasome Activation by ATP Enhances Citrobacter rodentium Clearance through ROS Generation

open access: yesCellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2017
Background: Nod-like receptor family, pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) is an important cytosolic sensor of cellular stress and infection. Once activated, NLRP3 forms a multiprotein complex (inflammasome) that triggers the maturation and secretion of ...

The Role of the Inflammasome in Heart Failure

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2021
Inflammation promotes the development of heart failure (HF). The inflammasome is a multimeric protein complex that plays an essential role in the innate immune response by triggering the cleavage and activation of the proinflammatory cytokines ...

Lentinan from shiitake selectively attenuates AIM2 and non-canonical inflammasome activation while inducing pro-inflammatory cytokine production

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Lentinan extracted from shiitake (Lentinula edodes) is a β-glucan that has been reported as an intravenous anti-tumor polysaccharide via enhancement of the host immune system. In this study, we determined the effect of lentinan on inflammasome activation,

Distinct Molecular Mechanisms Underlying Potassium Efflux for NLRP3 Inflammasome Activation

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
The NLRP3 inflammasome is a core component of innate immunity, and dysregulation of NLRP3 inflammasome involves developing autoimmune, metabolic, and neurodegenerative diseases.
