Deficiency of the purinergic receptor 2X7 attenuates nonalcoholic steatohepatitis induced by high-fat diet. possible role of the NLRP3 Inflammasome [PDF]
, 2017 Molecular mechanisms driving transition from simple steatosis to nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), a critical step in the progression of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) to cirrhosis, are poorly defined. This study aimed at investigating the

The mitochondrial protease HtrA2 restricts the NLRP3 and AIM2 inflammasomes. [PDF]
, 2018 Activation of the inflammasome pathway is crucial for effective intracellular host defense. The mitochondrial network plays an important role in inflammasome regulation but the mechanisms linking mitochondrial homeostasis to attenuation of inflammasome ...

(De-) Oiling Inflammasomes [PDF]
Immunity, 2013 Activation of inflammasome signaling can produce harmful inflammation. In this issue of Immunity, Yan et al. (2013) suggest that omega-3 fatty acids commonly found in marine oils can suppress activation of NLRP3 and NLRP1b inflammasomes.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa pilin activates the inflammasome [PDF]
, 2011 IL-1 beta is produced from inactive pro-IL-1 beta by activation of caspase-1 brought about by a multi-subunit protein platform called the inflammasome. Many bacteria can trigger inflammasome activity through flagellin activation of the host protein NLRC4.

Mycobacterium tuberculosis and the host cell inflammasome: a complex relationship.
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2013 The production of IL-1β during the infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is important for successful host immune defense. In macrophages and dendritic cells the host cell inflammasome is crucial for generation of secreted IL-1β in response to ...

The impact of pneumolysin on the macrophage response to Streptococcus pneumoniae is strain-dependent [PDF]
, 2014 Streptococcus pneumoniae is the world's leading cause of pneumonia, bacteremia, meningitis and otitis media. A major pneumococcal virulence factor is the cholesterol-dependent cytolysin, which has the defining property of forming pores in cholesterol ...

Posttranslational Regulation of the NLR Family Pyrin Domain-Containing 3 Inflammasome
Frontiers in Immunology, 2018 The NOD-like receptor family pyrin domain-containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome is a multi-protein complex that can be activated by a variety of pathogen-associated molecular patterns or damage-associated molecular patterns.

Interplay Between NLRP3 Inflammasome and Autophagy
Frontiers in Immunology, 2020 The NLRP3 inflammasome is cytosolic multi-protein complex that induces inflammation and pyroptotic cell death in response to both pathogen (PAMPs) and endogenous activators (DAMPs).

Frontiers in Immunology, 2023 The NLRP3 inflammasome plays a critical role in the innate immune response, and its excessive activation will cause pyroptotic cell death and be associated with the onset of inflammatory diseases. However, NLRP3 inflammasome targeting therapies are still
