The AIM2 inflammasome is critical for innate immunity to Francisella tularensis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Francisella tularensis, the causative agent of tularemia, infects host macrophages, which triggers production of the proinflammatory cytokines interleukin 1beta (IL-1beta) and IL-18. We elucidate here how host macrophages recognize F.

Mutations in the B30.2 and the central helical scaffold domains of pyrin differentially affect inflammasome activation

open access: yesCell Death and Disease, 2023
Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) is the most common monogenic autoinflammatory disorder. FMF is caused by mutations in the MEFV gene, encoding pyrin, an inflammasome sensor.

The Death-domain Fold of the ASC PYRIN Domain, Presenting a Basis for PYRIN/PYRIN Recognition [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Molecular Biology, 2003
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

POP1 inhibits MSU-induced inflammasome activation and ameliorates gout

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
Canonical inflammasomes are innate immune protein scaffolds that enable the activation of inflammatory caspase-1, and subsequently the processing and release of interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-18, and danger signals, as well as the induction of pyroptotic cell ...

Progress on the role of NLRP3 inflammasome in hyperuricemic nephropathy [PDF]

open access: yesJichu yixue yu linchuang, 2023
Hyperuricemic nephropathy (HN) is a common clinical complication of hyperuricemia, leading to hyperuricemia-associated renal abnormalities. The present review sheds light on the mechanistic aspects pertaining to HN, emphasizing the role of nucleotide ...

Pyrin Domain (PYD)-containing Inflammasome in Innate Immunity [PDF]

open access: hybridJournal of Bacteriology and Virology, 2011
Inflammasome is a cytosolic multiprotein complex to activate caspase-1 leading to the subsequent processing of inactive pro-interleukin-1-beta (Pro-IL-1β) into its active interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β) in response to pathogen- or dangerassociated molecular pattern.
