Inflammasomes as Targets for Adjuvants
Pathogens, 2020 Inflammasomes are an essential part of the innate immune system. They are necessary for the development of a healthy immune response against infectious diseases.

IL-1R and inflammasomes mediate early pulmonary protective mechanisms in respiratory brucella abortus infection [PDF]
, 2016 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.

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 ...

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

IKKα negatively regulates ASC-dependent inflammasome activation. [PDF]
, 2014 The inflammasomes are multiprotein complexes that activate caspase-1 in response to infections and stress, resulting in the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines.

Inflammasomes and Pyroptosis of Liver Cells in Liver Fibrosis
Frontiers in Immunology, 2022 Inflammasomes are multiprotein complexes that can sense danger signals and activate caspase-1 to mediate pro-inflammatory cytokines release and pyroptotic cell death.

Nlrp6 promotes recovery after peripheral nerve injury independently of inflammasomes [PDF]
, 2015 Background: NOD-like receptors (Nlrs) are key regulators of immune responses during infection and autoimmunity. A subset of Nlrs assembles inflammasomes, molecular platforms that are activated in response to endogenous danger and microbial ligands and ...

Structure, Activation and Regulation of NLRP3 and AIM2 Inflammasomes
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021 The inflammasome is a three-component (sensor, adaptor, and effector) filamentous signaling platform that shields from multiple pathogenic infections by stimulating the proteolytical maturation of proinflammatory cytokines and pyroptotic cell death.

Brainiac Caspases: Beyond the Wall of Apoptosis [PDF]
, 2019 For the last two decades, caspases, a family of cysteine-aspartic proteases, have evolved from being considered solely as regulators of apoptosis or inflammation to having a wider range of functions.
