Anti-GBM glomerulonephritis involves IL-1 but is independent of NLRP3/ASC inflammasome-mediated activation of caspase-1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
IL-1b and IL-18 are proinflammatory cytokines that contribute to renal immune complex disease, but whether IL-1b and IL-18 are mediators of intrinsic glomerular inflammation is unknown.

Double-walled carbon nanotubes trigger IL-1β release in human monocytes through Nlrp3 inflammasome activation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Because of their outstanding physical properties, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are promising new materials in the field of nanotechnology. It is therefore imperative to assess their adverse effects on human health.

Protective and Aggravating Effects of Nlrp3 Inflammasome Activation in IBD Models: Influence of Genetic and Environmental Factors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is characterized by chronic intestinal inflammation due to dysregulation of the mucosal immune system.

Knocking In the NLRP3 Inflammasome [PDF]

open access: yesImmunity, 2009
Mutations in the human NLRP3 gene cause interleukin-1beta-related autoinflammatory syndromes. In this issue of Immunity, Brydges et al. (2009) and Meng et al. (2009) report the characterization of Nlrp3 gene-targeted mice harboring mutations mimicking those causing disease in humans.

MARCH5-dependent NLRP3 ubiquitination is required for mitochondrial NLRP3-NEK7 complex formation and NLRP3 inflammasome activation.

open access: yesThe EMBO journal, 2023
The NLRP3 inflammasome plays a key role in responding to pathogens, and endogenous damage and mitochondria are intensively involved in inflammasome activation. The NLRP3 inflammasome forms multiprotein complexes and its sequential assembly is important for its activation.

AKT Regulates NLRP3 Inflammasome Activation by Phosphorylating NLRP3 Serine 5 [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Immunology, 2020
Abstract The cytosolic pattern recognition receptor NLRP3 senses host-derived danger signals and certain microbe-derived products in both humans and rodents. NLRP3 activation assembles an inflammasome complex that contains the adapter proteins ASC and caspase-1, whose activation triggers the maturation and release of the proinflammatory ...

Neurodegenerative Disease and the NLRP3 Inflammasome [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2021
The prevalence of neurodegenerative disease has increased significantly in recent years, and with a rapidly aging global population, this trend is expected to continue. These diseases are characterised by a progressive neuronal loss in the brain or peripheral nervous system, and generally involve protein aggregation, as well as metabolic abnormalities ...

NLRP3 phosphorylation in its LRR domain critically regulates inflammasome assembly

open access: yes, 2021
International audienceAbstract NLRP3 controls the secretion of inflammatory cytokines IL-1β/18 and pyroptosis by assembling the inflammasome. Upon coordinated priming and activation stimuli, NLRP3 recruits NEK7 within hetero-oligomers that nucleate ASC ...

CCDC50 suppresses NLRP3 inflammasome activity by mediating autophagic degradation of NLRP3

open access: yesEMBO reports, 2022
The NLRP3-directed inflammasome complex is crucial for the host to resist microbial infection and monitor cellular damage. However, the hyperactivation of NLRP3 inflammasome is implicated in pathogenesis of inflammatory diseases, including inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).

Cardiolipin and the Nlrp3 Inflammasome [PDF]

open access: yesCell Metabolism, 2013
The Nlrp3 inflammasome is a key controller of the proinflammatory cytokine IL-1β. Iyer and colleagues (2013) demonstrate that Nlrp3 activators promote an interaction between cardiolipin in mitochondria and Nlrp3. Cardiolipin is thus a hydrophobic danger signal that, upon translocation to the outer mitochondrial membrane, activates Nlrp3, promoting ...
