Inflammasomes and autoimmunity [PDF]
Trends in Molecular Medicine, 2011 The NOD-like receptor (NLR) family members are cytosolic sensors of microbial components and danger signals. A subset of NLRs control inflammasome assembly that results in caspase-1 activation and, in turn, IL-1β and IL-18 production. Excessive inflammasome activation can cause autoinflammatory disorders, including the hereditary periodic fevers ...

Complementing the inflammasome [PDF]
Immunology, 2016 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 ...

Emerging mechanisms and functions of inflammasome complexes in teleost fish
Frontiers in Immunology, 2023 Inflammasomes are multiprotein complexes, which are assembled in response to a diverse range of exogenous pathogens and endogenous danger signals, leading to produce pro-inflammatory cytokines and induce pyroptotic cell death.

Inflammasomes in Inflammation-Induced Cancer [PDF]
, 2017 The inflammasome is an important multiprotein complex that functions during inflamma-tory immune responses. The activation of inflammasome will lead to the autoactivation of caspase-1 and subsequent cleavage of proIL-1 beta and proIL-18, which are key ...

Inflammasomes and Type 1 Diabetes [PDF]
, 2021 Microbiota have been identified as an important modulator of susceptibility in the development of Type 1 diabetes in both animal models and humans. Collectively these studies highlight the association of the microbiota composition with genetic risk ...

Molecular Aspects of Medicine, 2022 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 ...

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.

The AIM2 inflammasome is activated in astrocytes during the late phase of EAE
JCI Insight, 2022 Inflammasomes are a class of innate immune signaling platforms that activate in response to an array of cellular damage and pathogens. Inflammasomes promote inflammation under many circumstances to enhance immunity against pathogens and inflammatory ...

Inflammasome activation by viral infection: mechanisms of activation and regulation
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023 Viral diseases are the most common problems threatening human health, livestock, and poultry industries worldwide. Viral infection is a complex and competitive dynamic biological process between a virus and a host/target cell.
