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.

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

Cardamonin from a medicinal herb protects against LPS-induced septic shock by suppressing NLRP3 inflammasome

open access: yesActa Pharmaceutica Sinica B, 2019
Aberrant activation of NLRP3 inflammasome has been implicated in the pathogenesis of diverse inflammation-related diseases, and pharmacological molecules targeting NLRP3 inflammasome are of considerable value to identifying potential therapeutic ...

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.

NLRP3 inflammasome blocked the glycolytic pathway via targeting to PKLR in arsenic-induced hepatic insulin resistance

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2021
Arsenic exposure is related to insulin resistance (IR). However, the underlying mechanism is still uncertain. NOD-like receptors containing pyrin domain 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome is a key driving factor of IR.

Gout and NLRP3 Inflammasome Biology. [PDF]

open access: yesArthritis Rheumatol
This review describes the three broad stages of acute inflammation in the context of gout: initiation, leucocyte mobilization, and self‐resolution. A typical case of a gout flare is presented. The role of the NLRP3 inflammasome in acute monosodium urate crystal–induced inflammation is reviewed in detail.

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.

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 ...

Exosomes Regulate NLRP3 Inflammasome in Diseases [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Emerging evidence has suggested the unique and critical role of exosomes as signal molecules vector in various diseases. Numerous researchers have been trying to identify how these exosomes function in immune progression, as this could promote their use as biomarkers for the disease process and potential promising diagnostic tools.
