The circadian clock protein Rev-erbα provides neuroprotection and attenuates neuroinflammation against Parkinson’s disease via the microglial NLRP3 inflammasome

TL;DR: In this paper , the role of the core clock protein Rev-erbα and the microglia-mediated NLR family pyrin domain-containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome in PD pathogenesis was explored.
Journal ArticleDOI

Interplay between Cell Death and Cell Proliferation Reveals New Strategies for Cancer Therapy

TL;DR: Identifying cell cycle independent vulnerabilities of cancer is critical for developing alternative strategies that can overcome therapeutic resistance.

Walking down Skeletal Muscle Lane: From Inflammasome to Disease

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the current knowledge regarding the function of NLRP3 in diseased skeletal muscle, and discuss the potential therapeutic options targeting the inflammasome in muscle disorders.

Novel Insights Into the Interactions Between the Gut Microbiome, Inflammasomes, and Gasdermins During Colorectal Cancer

TL;DR: The existing literature supporting the importance of the inflammasome–microbiota axis, as well as the activation and function of GSDMs, are summarized to gain a better mechanistic understanding of CRC pathogenesis.

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.

UniProt: the universal protein knowledgebase in 2021

Alex Bateman, +132 more
TL;DR: The UniProtKB responded to the COVID-19 pandemic through expert curation of relevant entries that were rapidly made available to the research community through a dedicated portal and a credit-based publication submission interface was developed.
Journal ArticleDOI

A role for mitochondria in NLRP3 inflammasome activation

TL;DR: It is shown that mitophagy/autophagy blockade leads to the accumulation of damaged, ROS-generating mitochondria, and this in turn activates the NLRP3 inflammasome, and may explain the frequent association of mitochondrial damage with inflammatory diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cleavage of GSDMD by inflammatory caspases determines pyroptotic cell death

TL;DR: Gasdermin D (Gsdmd) is identified by genome-wide clustered regularly interspaced palindromic repeat-Cas9 nuclease screens of caspase-11- and caspasing-1-mediated pyroptosis in mouse bone marrow macrophages to offer insight into inflammasome-mediated immunity/diseases and change the understanding of pyroPTosis and programmed necrosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Innate immune activation through Nalp3 inflammasome sensing of asbestos and silica.

TL;DR: It is shown that asbestos and silica are sensed by the Nalp3 inflammasome, whose subsequent activation leads to interleukin-1β secretion, and support its role as a major proinflammatory “danger” receptor in particulate matter–related pulmonary diseases.
