IL-1R and inflammasomes mediate early pulmonary protective mechanisms in respiratory brucella abortus infection [PDF]
Brucella spp. infection is frequently acquired through contaminated aerosols. The role of interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β) in the early pulmonary response to respiratory Brucella infection is unknown.

AimPrevious studies have proved that inhibiting inflammasome activation provides neuroprotection against early brain injury (EBI) after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), which is mainly focused on the microglial inflammatory response, but the potential role

Extracellular ATP drives systemic inflammation, tissue damage and mortality [PDF]
Systemic inflammatory response syndromes (SIRS) may be caused by both infectious and sterile insults, such as trauma, ischemia-reperfusion or burns. They are characterized by early excessive inflammatory cytokine production and the endogenous release of ...

Two decades of inflammasome research has led to a vast body of knowledge on the complex regulatory mechanisms and pathological roles of canonical and non-canonical inflammasome activation in a plethora of research models of primarily rodent origin. More recently, the field has made notable progress in characterizing human-specific inflammasomes and ...

Hematopoietic (stem) cells—The elixir of life?
The aging of HSCs (hematopoietic stem cells) and the blood system leads to the decline of other organs. Rejuvenating aged HSCs improves the function of the blood system, slowing the aging of the heart, kidney, brain, and liver, and the occurrence of age‐related diseases.

Molecular Mechanisms Used by Salmonella to Evade the Immune System [PDF]
Human and animal pathogens are able to circumvent, at least temporarily, the sophisticated immune defenses of their hosts. Several serovars of the Gram-negative bacterium Salmonella enterica have been used as models for the study of pathogen-host ...

Nanoreporter for Real‐Time Monitoring of Inflammasome Activity and Targeted Therapy
Inflammasome activation is associated with a myriad of inflammatory diseases. However, existing methods provides a limited understanding of spatiotemporal kinetics of inflammasome activation, with restricted scope for early detection of associated ...

Complementing the inflammasome [PDF]
SummaryThe innate immune system is an ancient surveillance system able to sense microbial invaders as well as aberrations in normal cell function. No longer viewed as a static and non‐specific part of immunity, the innate immune system employs a plethora of specialized pattern recognition sensors to monitor and achieve homeostasis; these include the ...

The Caenorhabditis elegans DPF‐3 and human DPP4 have tripeptidyl peptidase activity
The dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPPIV) family comprises serine proteases classically defined by their ability to remove dipeptides from the N‐termini of substrates, a feature that gave the family its name. Here, we report the discovery of a previously unrecognized tripeptidyl peptidase activity in DPPIV family members from two different species.

Autophagy in Microglia and Alzheimer's disease [PDF]
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common neurodegenerative disease, characterized by amyloid-beta plaques, neurofibrillary tangles and neuroinflammation. Autophagy has been associated with several neurodegenerative diseases.
