Canonical Nlrp3 Inflammasome Links Systemic Low-Grade Inflammation to Functional Decline in Aging

TLDR
Nlrp3 inflammasome is revealed as an upstream target that controls age-related inflammation and an innovative therapeutic strategy to lower NLRp3 activity to delay multiple age- related chronic diseases is offered.

Integrating the "Immunome" in the Stratification of Myelodysplastic Syndromes and Future Clinical Trial Design.

TL;DR: The existing knowledge is reviewed and how state-of-the-art immune monitoring strategies could potentially permit novel patient substratification, thereby empowering practical predictions of response to treatment in MDS is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Insensitivity of astrocytes to interleukin 10 signaling following peripheral immune challenge results in prolonged microglial activation in the aged brain.

TL;DR: A major cytokine-regulatory loop between activated microglia and astrocytes is impaired in the aged brain, resulting in a failure to induce IL-10R1 and transforming growth factor β and resolve microglial activation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Damage-associated molecular patterns and their pathological relevance in diabetes mellitus.

TL;DR: Current research on the function(s) of inflammasomes and DAMPs is reviewed and their pathological relevance and therapeutic implications in diabetes are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Innate immune perturbations, accumulating DAMPs and inflammasome dysregulation: A ticking time bomb in ageing.

TL;DR: The evidence that dysregulated inflammasome activation, via altered innate immune cell functions and elevated levels of DAMPs, contributes to the establishment of chronic, low-grade inflammation and the development of age-related pathological processes is reviewed.

Gene Expression Omnibus: NCBI gene expression and hybridization array data repository

TL;DR: The Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) project was initiated in response to the growing demand for a public repository for high-throughput gene expression data and provides a flexible and open design that facilitates submission, storage and retrieval of heterogeneous data sets from high-power gene expression and genomic hybridization experiments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gout-associated uric acid crystals activate the NALP3 inflammasome

TL;DR: It is shown that MSU and CPPD engage the caspase-1-activating NALP3 (also called cryopyrin) inflammasome, resulting in the production of active interleukin (IL)-1β and IL-18 in mice deficient in the IL-1β receptor.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inflamm‐aging: An Evolutionary Perspective on Immunosenescence

TL;DR: The beneficial effects of inflammation devoted to the neutralization of dangerous/harmful agents early in life and in adulthood become detrimental late in life in a period largely not foreseen by evolution, according to the antagonistic pleiotropy theory of aging.
Journal ArticleDOI

Immunological and Inflammatory Functions of the Interleukin-1 Family

TL;DR: The IL-1 family includes members that suppress inflammation, both specifically within the IL-2 family but also nonspecifically for TLR ligands and the innate immune response.
