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.

The Dark Age(ing) of the Inflammasome

TL;DR: Dietary caffeine inhibits the NLRC4 inflammasome, which is associated with disease-free aging and described in Furman et al. (2017) describe that dietary caffeine inhibits this molecule.

Dynamic regulation of mitochondrial-endoplasmic reticulum crosstalk during stem cell homeostasis and aging.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors summarized the current understanding on roles of mitochondrial dynamics during stem cell homeostasis and aging, and lineage-specific differentiation, and proposed potential unique mitochondrial molecular signature features between different source-derived stem cells and potential associations between stem cell aging and mitochondria-endoplasmic reticulum (ER) communication, as well as potential novel strategies for anti-aging intervention and healthy aging.

Identification of plant metabolite classes from Waltheria Indica L. extracts regulating inflammatory immune responses via COX-2 inhibition.

TL;DR: The data suggest that Waltheria Indica extracts inhibit the key inflammatory enzyme, COX-2, as a function of triterpenoid- and steroidal-saponin concentration and support the known efficacy of extracted WaltherIA Indica leaves as a traditional treatment against inflammation related diseases.

Impact of 12-Week Moderate-Intensity Aerobic Training on Inflammasome Complex Activation in Elderly Women

TL;DR: Applied aerobic training affected the resting expression of inflammasome constituents (NLRP3 and TLR4) and levels of downstream effectors (IL-1β, TNFα, and IL-6), however, at the end of the program, participants acquire an acute inflammatory response to exercise that was absent at baseline.

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.
