ASC filament formation serves as a signal amplification mechanism for inflammasomes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
A hallmark of inflammasome activation is the ASC speck, a micrometre-sized structure formed by the inflammasome adaptor protein ASC (apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a CARD), which consists of a pyrin domain (PYD) and a caspase ...

NLRP3 Inflammasome and Inflammatory Diseases [PDF]

open access: yesOxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity, 2020
Almost all human diseases are strongly associated with inflammation, and a deep understanding of the exact mechanism is helpful for treatment. The NLRP3 inflammasome composed of the NLRP3 protein, procaspase-1, and ASC plays a vital role in regulating inflammation.

Brainiac Caspases: Beyond the Wall of Apoptosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
For the last two decades, caspases, a family of cysteine-aspartic proteases, have evolved from being considered solely as regulators of apoptosis or inflammation to having a wider range of functions.

The Inflammasome: A Promising Potential Therapeutic Target for Early Brain Injury Following Subarachnoid Hemorrhage

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioscience-Landmark
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), a severe cerebrovascular disorder, is principally instigated by the rupture of an aneurysm. Early brain injury (EBI), which gives rise to neuronal demise, microcirculation impairments, disruption of the blood-brain barrier,

Functional deficits precede structural lesions in mice with high-fat diet-induced diabetic retinopathy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Obesity predisposes to human type 2 diabetes, the most common cause of diabetic retinopathy. To determine if high-fat diet–induced diabetes in mice can model retinal disease, we weaned mice to chow or a high-fat diet and tested the hypothesis that diet ...

ARIH2 Ubiquitinates NLRP3 and Negatively Regulates NLRP3 Inflammasome Activation in Macrophages [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Immunology, 2017
Abstract The nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain–like receptor family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome is a molecular platform that induces caspase-1 activation and subsequent IL-1β maturation, and is implicated in inflammatory diseases; however, little is known about the negative regulation of NLRP3 inflammasome ...
