NLRP3 inflammasome, an immune‐inflammatory target in pathogenesis and treatment of cardiovascular diseases

open access: yesClinical and Translational Medicine, 2020
Inflammation is an important process involved in several cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), and nod‐like receptor family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome is a vital player in innate immunity and inflammation.

Targeting NLRP3 Inflammasome With Nrf2 Inducers in Central Nervous System Disorders

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
The NLRP3 inflammasome is an intracellular multiprotein complex that plays an essential role in the innate immune system by identifying and eliminating a plethora of endogenous and exogenous threats to the host.

Kidney surveillance in the spotlight: contrast-induced acute kidney injury illuminated [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Acute kidney injury comprises a heterogeneous group of conditions characterized by a sudden decrease in renal function over hours to days. Contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) is caused by radiographic contrast agents used in diagnostic imaging.

Lactic Acid Fermentation Is Required for NLRP3 Inflammasome Activation

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Activation of the Nod-like receptor 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome is important for activation of innate immune responses, but improper and excessive activation can cause inflammatory disease.

IKKα negatively regulates ASC-dependent inflammasome activation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The inflammasomes are multiprotein complexes that activate caspase-1 in response to infections and stress, resulting in the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines.

Molecular mechanisms regulating NLRP3 inflammasome activation [PDF]

open access: yesCellular & Molecular Immunology, 2015
Inflammasomes are multi-protein signaling complexes that trigger the activation of inflammatory caspases and the maturation of interleukin-1β. Among various inflammasome complexes, the NLRP3 inflammasome is best characterized and has been linked with various human autoinflammatory and autoimmune diseases. Thus, the NLRP3 inflammasome may be a promising

Hyperammonemia induces microglial NLRP3 inflammasome activation via mitochondrial oxidative stress in hepatic encephalopathy

open access: yesBiomedical Journal, 2023
Background: The role of nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome in the pathogenesis of hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is unclear. Mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (mtROS) is a signal for NLRP3 inflammasome

The mitochondrial protease HtrA2 restricts the NLRP3 and AIM2 inflammasomes. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Activation of the inflammasome pathway is crucial for effective intracellular host defense. The mitochondrial network plays an important role in inflammasome regulation but the mechanisms linking mitochondrial homeostasis to attenuation of inflammasome ...

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 ...
