POPing the fire into the pyrin? [PDF]
Initiation of an inflammatory response requires the co-ordinated participation of proteins within a scaffold in the cytosol of responding cells. The scaffold proteins contain members of a newly discovered family of pyrin-domain adaptor proteins that regulate complex assembly for initiation of nuclear factor κB and interleukin-1β signalling.

AIM2 forms a complex with Pyrin and ZBP1 to drive PANoptosis and host defense
Inflammasomes are important sentinels of innate immune defence, sensing pathogens and inducing cell death in infected cells1. There are several inflammasome sensors that each detect and respond to a specific pathogen- or damage-associated molecular ...

Actin Remodeling Defects Leading to Autoinflammation and Immune Dysregulation
A growing number of monogenic immune-mediated diseases have been related to genes involved in pathways of actin cytoskeleton remodeling. Increasing evidences associate cytoskeleton defects to autoinflammatory diseases and primary immunodeficiencies.

Activation of the Nod-like receptor family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome drives release of the proinflammatory cytokines interleukin (IL)-1β and IL-18 and induces pyroptosis (lytic cell death).

Function annotation of hepatic retinoid x receptor α based on genome-wide DNA binding and transcriptome profiling. [PDF]
BackgroundRetinoid x receptor α (RXRα) is abundantly expressed in the liver and is essential for the function of other nuclear receptors. Using chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing and mRNA profiling data generated from wild type and RXRα-null mouse ...

The Death-domain Fold of the ASC PYRIN Domain, Presenting a Basis for PYRIN/PYRIN Recognition [PDF]
The PYRIN domain is a conserved sequence motif identified in more than 20 human proteins with putative functions in apoptotic and inflammatory signalling pathways. The three-dimensional structure of the PYRIN domain from human ASC was determined by NMR spectroscopy. The structure determination reveals close structural similarity to death domains, death
