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.

Transcriptomic analysis unveils correlations between regulative apoptotic caspases and genes of cholesterol homeostasis in human brain.

TL;DR: In the brain, hierarchical clustering has revealed that the expression of regulative apoptotic caspases and of the inflammatory CASP1 is linked to several genes involved in cholesterol homeostasis, and it is demonstrated that these correlations are tissue specific being reduced (CASP9 and CASP10) or different in the liver.

Nrf2 in the Field of Dentistry with Special Attention to NLRP3

TL;DR: The functional implications of the nuclear factor E2-related factor or nuclear factor (erythroid-derived 2)-like 2 (Nrf2), with special attention to the NACHT, LRR, and PYD domains-containing protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome in the field of dentistry are summarized.

Defining the Microglia Response to Ischemic Stroke Injury: The Role of CD200-CD200R1 Signaling

TL;DR: The work presented herein details the efforts at characterizing and understanding the mechanisms that govern microglia homeostasis and activation in the central nervous system (CNS) and the effects of aging on microglial function and immune surveillance in the CNS.

Does Calorie Restriction Modulate Inflammaging via FoxO Transcription Factors

TL;DR: The current knowledge of the molecular mechanisms linking the effects of CR with the formation of inflammasomes, particularly focusing on possible relations with FoxO3 are reviewed, with preliminary results obtained from the mouse models.

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.

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.

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.

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.
