C646 Protects Against DSS-Induced Colitis Model by Targeting NLRP3 Inflammasome
Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2021 Numerous pieces of evidence have identified that the NLRP3 inflammasome plays a pivotal role in the development and pathogenesis of colitis. Targeting the NLRP3 inflammasome represents a potential therapeutic treatment.

Neurodegenerative Disease and the NLRP3 Inflammasome [PDF]
Frontiers 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 ...

Cytochrome c Negatively Regulates NLRP3 Inflammasomes. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 The release of cytochrome c from the inner mitochondrial membrane, where it is anchored by caridolipin, triggers the formation of the Apaf-1 apoptosome. Cardiolipin also interacts with NLRP3 recruiting NLRP3 to mitochondria and facilitating inflammasome ...

Cellular localization of NLRP3 inflammasome [PDF]
Protein & Cell, 2013 AbstractInflammasome is a large protein complex activated upon cellular stress or microbial infection, which triggers maturation of pro-inflammatory cytokines interleukin-1β and interleukin-18 through caspase-1 activation. Nod-like receptor family protein 3 (NLRP3) is the most characterized inflammasome activated by various stimuli.

NLRP3 Sensing of Diverse Inflammatory Stimuli Requires Distinct Structural Features
Frontiers in Immunology, 2020 The NLRP3 inflammasome is central to host defense and implicated in various inflammatory diseases and conditions. While the favored paradigm of NLRP3 inflammasome activation stipulates a unifying signal intermediate that de-represses NLRP3, this view has

DDX3X: stressing the NLRP3 inflammasome [PDF]
Cell Research, 2019 Stress granules and inflammasomes are intracellular complexes that assemble in response to cellular stress signals, enabling cells to persist and perish, respectively. In a recent study published in Nature, Samir et al. identify the helicase DDX3X as a central decision maker in the formation of pro-survival stress granules or pro-death NLRP3 ...

NLRP3 inflammasome in endothelial dysfunction [PDF]
Cell Death & Disease, 2020 AbstractInflammasomes are a class of cytosolic protein complexes. They act as cytosolic innate immune signal receptors to sense pathogens and initiate inflammatory responses under physiological and pathological conditions. The NLR-family pyrin domain-containing protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome is the most characteristic multimeric protein complex.

Pharmacological Inhibitors of the NLRP3 Inflammasome [PDF]
Frontiers in Immunology, 2019 Inflammasomes play a crucial role in innate immunity by serving as signaling platforms which deal with a plethora of pathogenic products and cellular products associated with stress and damage. By far, the best studied and most characterized inflammasome is NLRP3 inflammasome, which consists of NLRP3 (nucleotide-binding domain leucine-rich repeat (NLR)
