Reactive oxygen species regulate caspase-11 expression and activation of the non-canonical NLRP3 inflammasome during enteric pathogen infection [PDF]
Enteropathogenic and enterohemorrhagic bacterial infections in humans are a severe cause of morbidity and mortality. Although NOD-like receptors (NLRs) NOD2 and NLRP3 have important roles in the generation of protective immune responses to enteric ...

NLRP1 Inflammasomes: A Potential Target for the Treatment of Several Types of Brain Injury
NOD-like receptor (NLR) family pyrin domain-containing 1 (NLRP1) is a member of the NLR family. The NLRP1 inflammasome consists of the NLRP1 protein, the adaptor protein apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a CARD domain, and the effector ...

Novel role of PKR in inflammasome activation and HMGB1 release [PDF]
The inflammasome regulates release of caspase activation-dependent cytokines, including IL-1β, IL-18, and high-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1)1-5. During the course of studying HMGB1 release mechanisms, we discovered an important role of double-stranded RNA

NLRP1 Is the Key Inflammasome in Primary Human Keratinocytes [PDF]
The epidermis is the primary area of contact between the body and the environment, and it distinguishes between harmful exposures and those that should be tolerated. Discrimination between insults, and in particular the recognition of danger signals such as UVB, is mediated by innate immune receptors.

NLRP1 and NLRP3 polymorphisms in mesothelioma patients and asbestos exposed individuals a population-based autopsy study from North East Italy [PDF]
NRLP1 (rs12150220, rs9889625, rs9900356, rs6502867, rs2670660) and NLRP3 (rs35829419, rs10754558) polymorphisms have been analyzed in 69 subjects with documented asbestos exposure and death for malignant pleural mesothelioma and 59 patients with ...

UVB-Induced Skin Autoinflammation Due to Nlrp1b Mutation and Its Inhibition by Anti-IL-1β Antibody
NLRP1 (NACHT and leucine-rich repeat-containing protein family, pyrin domain-containing protein 1) is an innate immune sensor that is involved in the formation of inflammasome complexes.

A novel dual NLRP1 and NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitor for the treatment of inflammatory diseases
Objectives Inflammasomes induce maturation of the inflammatory cytokines IL‐1β and IL‐18, whose activity is associated with the pathophysiology of a wide range of infectious and inflammatory diseases. As validated therapeutic targets for the treatment of

Networks of intergenic long-range enhancers and snpRNAs drive castration-resistant phenotype of prostate cancer and contribute to pathogenesis of multiple common human disorders [PDF]
Biological and mechanistic relevance of intergenic disease-associated genetic loci (IDAGL) containing highly statistically significant disease-linked SNPs remains unknown. Here we present the experimental and clinical evidence revealing important role of

The NLRP3 and NLRP1 inflammasomes are activated in Alzheimer’s disease [PDF]
Interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β) and its key regulator, the inflammasome, are suspected to play a role in the neuroinflammation observed in Alzheimer's disease (AD); no conclusive data are nevertheless available in AD patients.mRNA for inflammasome components (NLRP1, NLRP3, PYCARD, caspase 1, 5 and 8) and downstream effectors (IL-1β, IL-18) was up-regulated ...

The NLRP1 inflammasome: new mechanistic insights and unresolved mysteries. [PDF]
Nucleotide-binding domain, leucine-rich repeat (NLR) proteins constitute a diverse class of innate immune sensors that detect pathogens or stress-associated stimuli in plants and animals. Some NLRs are activated upon direct binding to pathogen-derived ligands.
