Diverse viral proteases activate the NLRP1 inflammasome [PDF]
The NLRP1 inflammasome is a multiprotein complex that is a potent activator of inflammation. Mouse NLRP1B can be activated through proteolytic cleavage by the bacterial Lethal Toxin (LeTx) protease, resulting in degradation of the N-terminal domains of ...

NLRP1- A CINDERELLA STORY: a perspective of recent advances in NLRP1 and the questions they raise
NLRP1, while the first inflammasome described, has only recently begun to gain significant attention in disease pathology, inflammation research, and potentially, as a therapeutic target. Recently identified human variants provide key insights into NLRP1

Characterization of the NLRP1 inflammasome response in bovine species [PDF]
Inflammasomes act as sensors of infection or damage to initiate immune responses. While extensively studied in rodents, understanding of livestock inflammasomes is limited.

INFLAMMASOME NLRP1 DISTINCTIVE FEATURES IN ATOPIC CONDITIONS
The review article focuses on the NLRP1 inflammasome, which was discovered before the others but has been the least investigated. The emergence of the inflammasome in innate immunity container cells is an early event that precedes the development of any ...

NLRP1 Joins the Dark Side? [PDF]
NLRP1 has long remained an elusive member of the NOD-like-receptor family of innate immune sensors. In this issue of Immunity, Masters et al. (2012) describe its role in immune responses to stress and infection.

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

Functional and Evolutionary Analyses Identify Proteolysis as a General Mechanism for NLRP1 Inflammasome Activation. [PDF]
Inflammasomes are cytosolic multi-protein complexes that initiate immune responses to infection by recruiting and activating the Caspase-1 protease.

The NLRP1 inflammasome in skin diseases
Healthy human skin is constantly exposed to sterile and microbial agents. The skin immune system plays an important role in immune surveillance between tolerance and immune activation. This is mainly mediated by neutrophils, macrophages and most importantly lymphocytes.
