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

Cell 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

Tivantinib alleviates inflammatory diseases by directly targeting NLRP3

iScience, 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

eLife, 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

Journal 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).

Kynurenic acid ameliorates NLRP3 inflammasome activation by blocking calcium mobilization via GPR35

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
The inflammasome has been linked to diverse inflammatory and metabolic diseases, and tight control of inflammasome activation is necessary to avoid excessive inflammation. Kynurenic acid (KA) is a tryptophan metabolite in the kynurenine pathway. However,

A novel mechanism for NLRP3 inflammasome activation

Metabolism 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 ...

The Inflammasomes [PDF]

Cell, 2010
Inflammasomes are molecular platforms activated upon cellular infection or stress that trigger the maturation of proinflammatory cytokines such as interleukin-1beta to engage innate immune defenses. Strong associations between dysregulated inflammasome activity and human heritable and acquired inflammatory diseases highlight the importance this pathway

NLRP3 Sensing of Diverse Inflammatory Stimuli Requires Distinct Structural Features

Frontiers in Immunology, 2020
The NLRP3 inflammasome is central to host defense and implicated in various inflammatory diseases and conditions. While the favored paradigm of NLRP3 inflammasome activation stipulates a unifying signal intermediate that de-represses NLRP3, this view has

TRPV1 channel mediates NLRP3 inflammasome-dependent neuroinflammation in microglia

Cell 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

Frontiers 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.
