The Mechanism of NLRP3 Inflammasome Activation and Its Roles in Chronic Rhinosinusitis

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT NLRP3 (NLR family pyrin domain containing 3) is one of the crucial receptors in pathogen recognition receptor (PRR) families which can recognize the pathogen‐associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and the damage‐associated molecular patterns (DAMPs), thus triggering innate immune response. After NLRP3 activation, it recruits the adaptor protein

Baicalin Inhibits NOD-Like Receptor Family, Pyrin Containing Domain 3 Inflammasome Activation in Murine Macrophages by Augmenting Protein Kinase A Signaling

Frontiers in Immunology, 2017
The flavonoid baicalin has been reported to possess potent anti-inflammatory activities by suppressing inflammatory signaling pathways. However, whether baicalin can suppress the activation of NOD-like receptor (NLR) family, pyrin containing domain 3 ...

The Inflammatory Response to Enterotoxigenic E. coli and Probiotic E. faecium in a Coculture Model of Porcine Intestinal Epithelial and Dendritic Cells [PDF]

, 2018
The gut epithelium constitutes an interface between the intestinal contents and the underlying gut-associated lymphoid tissue (GALT) including dendritic cells (DC).

Dapansutrile preserves pancreatic beta‐cell function by regulating insulin vesicle membrane fusion and mitochondrial homeostasis

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims/Hypothesis Pancreatic beta‐cell dysfunction is pivotal in diabetes pathogenesis, with the NOD‐like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome playing a crucial role. Dapansutrile (DAPA), a novel NLRP3 inhibitor, demonstrates promise in diabetes management.

The Role of NLRP1, AIM2 and MEFV Inflammasomes in the High‐Intensity Interval Training of Individuals With Obesity

Immunology, EarlyView.
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.

Structure and evolutionary history of a large family of NLR proteins in the zebrafish [PDF]

, 2016
Multicellular eukaryotes have evolved a range of mechanisms for immune recognition. A widespread family involved in innate immunity are the NACHT-domain and leucine-rich-repeat-containing (NLR) proteins.

Redox Regulation of NLRP3 Inflammasomes: ROS as Trigger or Effector? [PDF]

, 2015
Significance: Inflammasomes are multiprotein complexes localized within the cytoplasm of the cell that are responsible for the maturation of proinflammatory cytokines such as interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and IL-18, and the activation of a highly inflammatory ...

Exposure to Gestational Intermittent Hypoxia Does Not Impair the Metabolic Function or Accelerate the Biological Ageing Process of Offspring of Either Sex

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), marked by intermittent hypoxia, is associated with obesity, type 2 diabetes and metabolic associated fatty liver disease. In pregnancy, it remains underdiagnosed despite links to gestational diabetes, hypertension, and foetal growth restriction.

Porphyromonas gingivalis GroEL accelerates abdominal aortic aneurysm formation by matrix metalloproteinase‐2 SUMOylation in vascular smooth muscle cells: A novel finding for the activation of MMP‐2

Molecular Oral Microbiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Infection is a known cause of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), and matrix metalloproteases‐2 (MMP‐2) secreted by vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs) plays a key role in the structural disruption of the middle layer of the arteries during AAA progression.
