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.

Journal of Experimental Medicine, 2018 In this issue of JEM, Boucher et al. (https://doi.org/10.1084/jem.20172222) report isolation of active caspase-1 from macrophages after inflammasome activation. Surprisingly, they find that caspase-1 is quickly inactivated upon autoproteolytic processing.

Reactive oxygen species regulate caspase-11 expression and activation of the non-canonical NLRP3 inflammasome during enteric pathogen infection [PDF]
, 2014 Enteropathogenic and enterohemorrhagic bacterial infections in humans are a severe cause of morbidity and mortality. Although NOD-like receptors (NLRs) NOD2 and NLRP3 have important roles in the generation of protective immune responses to enteric ...

The Role of the Inflammasome in Heart Failure
Frontiers 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 ...

Bone matrix components activate the NLRP3 inflammasome and promote osteoclast differentiation [PDF]
, 2017 The NLRP3 inflammasome senses a variety of signals referred to as danger associated molecular patterns (DAMPs), including those triggered by crystalline particulates or degradation products of extracellular matrix. Since some DAMPs confer tissue-specific

The NLRP3 Inflammasome: An Overview of Mechanisms of Activation and Regulation
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2019 The NLRP3 inflammasome is a critical component of the innate immune system that mediates caspase-1 activation and the secretion of proinflammatory cytokines IL-1β/IL-18 in response to microbial infection and cellular damage.

International Journal of Molecular Medicine, 2023 The inflammasome regulates innate immunity by serving as a signaling platform. The Nod-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome, equipped with NLRP3, the adaptor protein apoptosis-associated speck-like protein (ASC) and pro-caspase-1, is by far the ...

Inflammasomes and Cancer [PDF]
Cancer Immunology Research, 2017 Abstract Inflammation affects all stages of tumorigenesis. A key signaling pathway leading to acute and chronic inflammation is through activation of the caspase-1 inflammasome. Inflammasome complexes are assembled on activation of certain nucleotide-binding domain, leucine-rich repeat–containing proteins (NLR), AIM2-like receptors, or ...
