Glucose-Insulin-Potassium Alleviates Intestinal Mucosal Barrier Injuries Involving Decreased Expression of Uncoupling Protein 2 and NLR Family-Pyrin Domain-Containing 3 Inflammasome in Polymicrobial Sepsis [PDF]

BioMed Research International, 2017
Uncoupling protein 2 (UCP2) may be critical for intestinal barrier function which may play a key role in the development of sepsis, and insulin has been reported to have anti-inflammatory effects. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly allocated into five groups: control group, cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) group, sham surgery group, CLP plus ...

Metformin Inhibits NLR Family Pyrin Domain Containing 3 (NLRP)-Relevant Neuroinflammation via an Adenosine-5′-Monophosphate-Activated Protein Kinase (AMPK)-Dependent Pathway to Alleviate Early Brain Injury After Subarachnoid Hemorrhage in Mice

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2022
Neuroinflammation plays a key role in the pathogenesis of early brain injury (EBI) after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Previous studies have shown that metformin exerts anti-inflammatory effects and promotes functional recovery in various central nervous system diseases.

AIF1+CSF1R+ MSCs, induced by TNF‐α, act to generate an inflammatory microenvironment and promote hepatocarcinogenesis

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Mesenchymal stem cells subset, educated by TNF‐α, are involved to generate inflammatory microenvironment and promote hepatocarcinogenesis Abstract Background and Aims Increasing evidence suggests that mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) home to injured local tissues and the tumor microenvironment in the liver.

Dexmedetomidine attenuates P2X4 and NLRP3 expression in the spine of rats with diabetic neuropathic pain [PDF]

Acta Cirúrgica Brasileira, 2019
Purpose: To evaluate the effects of Dexmedetomidine (Dex) on spinal pathology and inflammatory factor in a rat model of Diabetic neuropathic pain (DNP). Methods: The rats were divided into 3 groups (eight in each group): normal group (N group), diabetic

Interleukin‐18 signaling promotes activation of hepatic stellate cells in mouse liver fibrosis

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Interleukin‐18 signaling promotes activation of hepatic stellate cells in mouse liver fibrosis. Abstract Background and Aims Nucleotide‐binding oligomerization domain‐like receptor‐family pyrin domain‐containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome activation has been shown to result in liver fibrosis.

Inhibition of the NLRP3/IL‐1β axis protects against sepsis‐induced cardiomyopathy

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, 2021
Background Septic cardiomyopathy worsens the prognosis of critically ill patients. Clinical data suggest that interleukin‐1β (IL‐1β), activated by the NLRP3 inflammasome, compromises cardiac function.

The Role of NLRP1, AIM2 and MEFV Inflammasomes in the High-Intensity Interval Training of Individuals With Obesity. [PDF]

Immunology
This study shows that 8 weeks of high‐intensity interval training (HIIT) modulate inflammasome‐related gene expression in individuals with obesity. HIIT increased AIM2, MEFV, CARD16 and CARD18 expression, with CARD16 upregulation supporting reduced inflammation through inhibition of caspase‐1 activation and lower IL‐1β levels.

The Protein Kinase R Inhibitor C16 Alleviates Sepsis-Induced Acute Kidney Injury Through Modulation of the NF-κB and NLR Family Pyrin Domain-Containing 3 (NLPR3) Pyroptosis Signal Pathways

Medical Science Monitor, 2020
BACKGROUND Protein kinase R (PKR) is implicated in the inflammatory response to bacterial infection while the role of PKR in sepsis-induced acute kidney injury (AKI) is largely unknown. This study aimed to investigate the effects of the specific PKR inhibitor C16 (C13H8N4OS) on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced AKI, and its mechanisms of action ...
