Inflammasome and Atherogenesis
Current Pharmaceutical Design, 2014Atherosclerosis is a progressive disease starting with accumulation of lipids, lipoproteins, and immune cells in the arterial wall. Inflammation and the innate immune response are involved in the formation of early atherosclerotic lesion. A protein complex known as the inflammasome is stimulated to activate interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and IL-18, which are ...

Leukadherin-1 inhibits NLRP3 inflammasome by blocking inflammasome assembly
International Immunopharmacology, 2023Aberrant activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome has been implicated in the occurrence and development of many inflammatory diseases, and thus potent inhibitors of the NLRP3 inflammasome should be explored. An antitumor agent, Leukadherin-1 (LA-1), tested in phase 1/2 clinical trials, has been reported to exert anti-inflammatory properties by blocking the

Autophagy is a ubiquitous cellular mechanism for the targeted lysosomal degradation of various cytosolic constituents, from proteins to organelles. As an essential homeostatic mechanism, autophagy is upregulated in response to numerous environmental and pharmacological stimuli, including starvation, where it facilitates the recycling of essential amino

The current chapter focuses on the role of inflammasome in cancer prevention and development. Emerging evidence suggested that inflammasome is closely correlated with elevated levels of IL-1β and IL-18, activation of NF-κB signaling, enhanced mitochondrial oxidative stress, and activation of autophagic process in cancer.

Mutations in inflammasome genes are responsible for rare monogenic and polygenic autoinflammatory diseases. On the other side, genetic polymorphisms in the same molecules contribute to the development of common multifactorial diseases (i.e., autoimmune diseases, cardiovascular pathologies, cancer).

Streptococci target inflammasome
Nature Microbiology, 2017The Streptococcus pyogenes surface M protein is a critical multifunctional virulence factor. Recent work sheds light on a new unexpected function of the M protein in activating the host inflammasome to induce macrophage cell death and promote infection.

Inflammasome-independent pyroptosis
Current Opinion in ImmunologyGasdermins are membrane pore-forming proteins that cause pyroptosis, an inflammatory cell death in which cells burst and release cytokines, chemokines, and other host alarm signals, such as ATP and HMGB1, which recruit and activate immune cells at sites of infection and danger. There are five gasdermins in humans - gasdermins A to E.
