Caspase-11 Non-canonical Inflammasomes in the Lung [PDF]
The airway epithelium and underlying innate immune cells comprise the first line of host defense in the lung. They recognize pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) using membrane-bound receptors, as well as cytosolic receptors such as inflammasomes. Inflammasomes activate inflammatory caspases, which in turn process and release the inflammatory

Canonical and non-canonical functions of NLRP3
Background: Since its discovery, NLRP3 is almost never separated from its major role in the protein complex it forms with ASC, NEK7 and Caspase-1, the inflammasome.

Non-canonical inflammasome activation by mouse caspase-11 (or human CASPASE-4/5) is crucial for the clearance of certain gram-negative bacterial infections, but can lead to severe inflammatory damage.

Bacteria-released components can modulate host innate immune response in the absence of direct host cell–bacteria interaction. In particular, bacteria-derived outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) were recently shown to activate host caspase-11-mediated non ...

Brucella abortus is a zoonotic pathogen that causes brucellosis. Because of Brucella’s unique LPS layer and intracellular localization predominately within macrophages, it can often evade immune detection.

Regulatory Roles of the Caspase-11 Non-Canonical Inflammasome in Inflammatory Diseases. [PDF]
Inflammation is an immune response mediated by innate immune cells of tissues, against invading microbes and cellular stress. The hallmark of inflammatory responses is the activation of inflammasomes - multiprotein oligomers comprising intracellular pattern recognition receptors and inflammatory effectors - such as ASC and pro-cysteine-aspartic ...

Distinct Molecular Mechanisms Underlying Potassium Efflux for NLRP3 Inflammasome Activation
The NLRP3 inflammasome is a core component of innate immunity, and dysregulation of NLRP3 inflammasome involves developing autoimmune, metabolic, and neurodegenerative diseases.

Secretoglobin 3A2 eliminates human cancer cells through pyroptosis
Non-canonical inflammasome activation that recognizes intracellular lipopolysaccharide (LPS) causes pyroptosis, the inflammatory death of innate immune cells.
