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 ...

Anthrax and the inflammasome [PDF]
Microbes and Infection, 2012 Anthrax lethal toxin (LT), a major virulence determinant of anthrax disease, induces vascular collapse in mice and rats. LT activates the Nlrp1 inflammasome in macrophages and dendritic cells, resulting in caspase-1 activation, IL-1β and IL-18 maturation and a rapid cell death (pyroptosis).

Inhibiting the NLRP3 Inflammasome [PDF]
Molecules, 2020 Inflammasomes are protein complexes which are important in several inflammatory diseases. Inflammasomes form part of the innate immune system that triggers the activation of inflammatory cytokines interleukin (IL)-1β and IL-18. The inflammasome most studied in sterile inflammation and non-communicable disease is the NLRP3 inflammasome.

Inflammasomes: Role in disease pathogenesis and therapeutic potential
Учёные записки Казанского университета: Серия Естественные науки, 2020 The structure of inflammasomes, history of their discovery, and their potential use as therapeutic targets were discussed. Inflammasomes represent cytosolic polyprotein complexes that are formed in response to various external and internal stimuli ...

NLRP inflammasomes in health and disease
Molecular BiomedicineNLRP inflammasomes are a group of cytosolic multiprotein oligomer pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) involved in the recognition of pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and danger-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) produced by infected ...

The Role of NLRP1, NLRP3, and AIM2 Inflammasomes in Psoriasis: Review
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021 Inflammasomes are high-molecular-weight protein complexes that may cleave the two main proinflammatory cytokines, pro-interleukin-1β and pro-interleukin-18, into active forms, and contribute to psoriasis.
