Acetaminophen (APAP) overdose leads to liver injury. NLRP3 inflammasome is a key player in APAP‐induced inflammation. Also, apoptosis and liver regeneration play an important role in liver injury. Therefore, we assessed allicin's protective effect on APAP‐induced hepatotoxicity and studied its effect on NLRP3 inflammasome and apoptosis. Mice in the APAP group were injected by APAP (250 mg/kg, intraperitoneal). The allicin‐treated group received allicin orally (10 mg/kg/d) during 7 days before APAP injection. Serum and hepatic tissues were separated 24 hours after APAP injection. Serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), albumin, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and hepatic malondialdehyde (MDA) were assessed using the colorimetric method. Hepatic NLRP3 inflammasome, caspase‐1, and interleukin‐1β (IL‐1β) were estimated using enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay. Hepatic Bcl‐2 and Ki‐67 were investigated by immunohistochemistry. APAP significantly increased AST, ALT, and ALP, whereas allicin significantly decreased their levels. Also, APAP significantly decreased albumin and allicin significantly improved it. APAP produced changes in liver morphology, including inflammation and massive coagulative necrosis. Allicin protected the liver from APAP‐induced necrosis, apoptosis, and hepatocellular degeneration via increasing Bcl‐2 and Ki‐67 levels. APAP significantly increased the hepatic MDA, whereas allicin significantly prevented this increase. APAP markedly activated the NLRP3 inflammasome pathway and consequently increased the production of caspase‐1 and IL‐1β. Interestingly, we found that allicin significantly inhibited NLRP3 inflammasome activation, which resulted in decreased caspase‐1 and IL‐1β levels. Allicin has a hepatoprotective effect against APAP‐induced liver injury via the decline of oxidative stress and inhibition of the inflammasome pathway and apoptosis. Therefore, allicin might be a novel tool to halt the progression of APAP‐stimulated hepatotoxicity. 相似文献

Impairment of the oesophageal epithelium in patients with reflux oesophagitis (RE) is a cytokine‐mediated injury rather than a chemical burn. The present study was conducted to explore CaSR/NLRP3 inflammasome pathway activation and cytokines IL‐1β and IL‐18 release in oesophageal epithelia injured by refluxates and the effects of Tojapride on that signal regulation. Using a modified RE rat model with Tojapride administration and Tojapride‐pretreated SV40‐immortalized human oesophageal epithelial cells (HET‐1A) exposed to acidic bile salts pretreated with Tojapride, we evaluated the therapeutic effects of Tojapride on oesophageal epithelial barrier function, the expression of CaSR/NLRP3 inflammasome pathway‐related proteins and the release of downstream cytokines in response to acidic bile salt irritation. In vivo, Tojapride treatment ameliorated the general condition and pathological lesions of the oesophageal epithelium in modified RE rats. In addition, Tojapride effectively blocked the CaSR‐mediated NLRP3 inflammasome activation in modified RE rats. In vitro, Tojapride treatment can reverse the harmful effect of acidic bile salts, which reduced transepithelial electrical resistance (TEER), up‐regulated the CaSR‐mediated NLRP3 inflammasome pathway and increased caspase‐1 activity, LDH release and cytokines secretion. Taken together, these data show that Tojapride can prevent CaSR‐mediated NLRP3 inflammasome activation and alleviate oesophageal epithelial injury induced by acidic bile salt exposure. 相似文献

Intervertebral disc degeneration is widely recognized as a cause of lower back pain, neurological dysfunction and other musculoskeletal disorders. The major inflammatory cytokine IL‐1β is associated with intervertebral disc degeneration; however, the molecular mechanisms that drive IL‐1β production in the intervertebral disc, especially in nucleus pulposus (NP) cells, are unknown. In some tissues, advanced glycation end products (AGEs), which accumulate in NP tissues and promote its degeneration, increase oxidative stress and IL‐1β secretion, resulting in disorders, such as obesity, diabetes mellitus and ageing. It remains unclear whether AGEs exhibit similar effects in NP cells. In this study, we observed significant activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome in NP tissues obtained from patients with degenerative disc disease compared to that with idiopathic scoliosis according to results detected by Western blot and immunofluorescence. Using NP cells established from healthy tissues, our in vitro study revealed that AGEs induced an inflammatory response in NP cells and a degenerative phenotype in a NLRP3‐inflammasome‐dependent manner related to the receptor for AGEs (RAGE)/NF‐κB pathway and mitochondrial damage induced by mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (mtROS) generation, mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP) activation and calcium mobilization. Among these signals, both RAGE and mitochondrial damage primed NLRP3 and pro‐IL‐1β activation as upstream signals of NF‐κB activity, whereas mitochondrial damage was critical for the assembly of inflammasome components. These results revealed that accumulation of AGEs in NP tissue may initiate inflammation‐related degeneration of the intervertebral disc via activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome. 相似文献

The inflammasome is a multiprotein complex that mediates caspase‐1 activation with subsequent maturation of the proinflammatory cytokines IL‐1β and IL‐18. The NLRP3 inflammasome is known to be activated by Staphylococcus aureus, one of the leading causes of bacteremia worldwide. Inflammasome activation and regulation in response to bacterial infection have been found to be of importance for a balanced host immune response. However, inflammasome signaling in vivo in humans initiated by S. aureus is currently sparsely studied. This study therefore aimed to investigate NLRP3 inflammasome activity in 20 patients with S. aureus bacteremia (SAB), by repeated measurement during the first week of bacteremia, compared with controls. Caspase‐1 activity was measured in monocytes and neutrophils by flow cytometry detecting FLICA (fluorescent‐labeled inhibitor of caspase‐1), while IL‐1β and IL‐18 was measured by Luminex and ELISA, respectively. As a measure of inflammasome priming, messenger RNA (mRNA) expression of NLRP3, CASP1 (procaspase‐1), and IL1B (pro‐IL‐1β) was analyzed by quantitative PCR. We found induced caspase‐1 activity in innate immune cells with subsequent release of IL‐18 in patients during the acute phase of bacteremia, indicating activation of the inflammasome. There was substantial interindividual variation in caspase‐1 activity between patients with SAB. We also found an altered inflammasome priming with low mRNA levels of NLRP3 accompanied by elevated mRNA levels of IL1B. This increased knowledge of the individual host immune response in SAB could provide support in the effort to optimize management and treatment of each individual patient. 相似文献

Uric acid crystal is known to activate the NLRP3 inflammasome and to cause tissue damages, which can result in many diseases, such as gout, chronic renal injury and myocardial damage. Meanwhile, soluble uric acid (sUA), before forming crystals, is also related to these diseases. This study was carried out to investigate whether sUA could also activate NLRP3 inflammasome in cardiomyocytes and to analyse the mechanisms. The cardiomyocyte activity was monitored, along with the levels of mature IL‐1β and caspase‐1 from H9c2 cells following sUA stimulus. We found that sUA was able to activate NLRP3 inflammasome, which was responsible for H9c2 cell apoptosis induced by sUA. By elevating TLR6 levels and then activating NF‐κB/p65 signal pathway, sUA promoted NLRP3, pro‐caspase 1 and pro‐IL‐1β production and provided the first signal of NLRP3 inflammasome activation. Meanwhile, ROS production regulated by UCP2 levels also contributed to NLRP3 inflammasome assembly and subsequent caspase 1 activation and mature IL‐1β secretion. In addition, the tlr6 knockdown rats suffering from hyperuricemia showed the lower level of IL‐1β and an ameliorative cardiac function. These findings suggest that sUA activates NLRP3 inflammasome in cardiomyocytes and they may provide one therapeutic strategy for myocardial damage induced by sUA. 相似文献

The nucleotide‐binding oligomerization domain‐like receptor family, pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome has a key role in the inflammatory response. We found that cisplatin (7.5, 15 mg/kg, IV) could induce acute injury to the liver and kidneys of rats. Western blot and immunohistochemical analyses showed that expression of NLRP3, caspase‐1 and interleukin‐1β was upregulated significantly in a dose‐dependent manner after cisplatin exposure. Autophagy could inhibit NLRP3 expression and assembly of the NLRP3 inflammasome. Expression of light chain 3 II/I and p62 suggested that autophagy was inhibited during injury to the liver and kidneys. These data suggested that cisplatin might activate NLRP3 by inhibiting autophagy in the liver and kidneys of rats. 相似文献

Atherosclerosis is a maladaptive chronic inflammatory disease, which remains the leading cause of death worldwide. The NLRP3 inflammasome constitutes a major driver of atherosclerosis, yet the mechanism of action is poorly understood. Mitochondrial dysfunction is essential for NLRP3 inflammasome activation. However, whether activated NLRP3 inflammasome exacerbates mitochondrial dysfunction remains to be further elucidated. Herein, we sought to address these issues applying VX765, a well-established inhibitor of caspase 1. VX765 robustly restrains caspase 1-mediated interleukin-1β production and gasdermin D processing. Our study assigned VX765 a novel role in antagonizing NLRP3 inflammasome assembly and activation. VX765 mitigates mitochondrial damage induced by activated NLRP3 inflammasome, as evidenced by decreased mitochondrial ROS production and cytosolic release of mitochondrial DNA. VX765 blunts caspase 1-dependent cleavage and promotes mitochondrial recruitment and phosphorylation of Parkin, a key mitophagy regulator. Functionally, VX765 facilitates mitophagy, efferocytosis and M2 polarization of macrophages. It also impedes foam cell formation, migration and pyroptosis of macrophages. VX765 boosts autophagy, promotes efferocytosis, and alleviates vascular inflammation and atherosclerosis in both ApoE−/− and Ldlr−/− mice. However, these effects of VX765 were abrogated upon ablation of Nlrp3 in ApoE−/− mice. This work provides mechanistic insights into NLRP3 inflammasome assembly and this inflammasome in dictating atherosclerosis. This study highlights that manipulation of caspase 1 paves a new avenue to treatment of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.Subject terms: Mitophagy, Atherosclerosis 相似文献

Paclitaxel is generally used to treat cancers in clinic as an inhibitor of cell division. However, the acquired resistance in tumours limits its clinical efficacy. Therefore, the aim of this study was to detect whether co‐treatment with lentinan enhanced the anti‐cancer effects of paclitaxel in A549 cells. We found that the combination of paclitaxel and lentinan resulted in a significantly stronger inhibition on A549 cell proliferation than paclitaxel treatment alone. Co‐treatment with paclitaxel and lentinan enhanced cell apoptosis rate by inducing caspase‐3 activation. Furthermore, co‐treatment with paclitaxel and lentinan significantly triggered reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, and increased thioredoxin‐interacting protein (TXNIP) expression. Moreover, co‐treatment with paclitaxel and lentinan enhanced TXNIP‐NLRP3 interaction, and activated NLRP3 inflammasome whereat interleukin‐1β levels were increased and cell apoptosis was induced. In addition, combination of paclitaxel and lentinan could activate apoptosis signal regulating kinase‐1 (ASK1)/p38 mitogen‐activated protein kinase (MAPK) signal which also contributed to cell apoptosis. Taken together, co‐treatment with paclitaxel and lentinan exerts synergistic apoptotic effects in A549 cells through inducing ROS production, and activating NLRP3 inflammasome and ASK1/p38 MAPK signal pathway. 相似文献

Interleukin‐1β (IL‐1β) represents one of the most important mediators of inflammation and host responses to infection. Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), the causative agent of human tuberculosis, induces IL‐1β secretion at the site of infection, but the underlying mechanism(s) are poorly understood. In this work we show that Mtb infection of macrophages stimulates caspase‐1 activity and promotes the secretion of IL‐1β. This stimulation requires live intracellular bacteria expressing a functional ESX‐1 secretion system. ESAT‐6, an ESX‐1 substrate implicated in membrane damage, is both necessary and sufficient for caspase‐1 activation and IL‐1β secretion. ESAT‐6 promotes the access of other immunostimulatory agents such as AG85 into the macrophage cytosol, indicating that this protein may contribute to caspase‐1 activation largely by perturbing host cell membranes. Using a high‐throughput shRNA‐based screen we found that numerous NOD‐like receptors (NLRs) and CARD domain‐containing proteins (CARDs) were important for IL‐1β secretion upon Mtb infection. Most importantly, NLRP3, ASC and caspase‐1 form an infection‐inducible inflammasome complex that is essential for IL‐1β secretion. In summary, we show that recognition of Mtb infection by the NLRP3 inflammasome requires the activity of the bacterial virulence factor ESAT‐6, and the subsequent IL‐1β response is regulated by a number of NLR/CARD proteins. 相似文献

Excessive production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and P2X7R activation induced by high glucose increases NLRP3 inflammasome activation, which contributes to the pathogenesis of diabetic cardiomyopathy. Although H3 relaxin has been shown to inhibit cardiac fibrosis induced by isoproterenol, the mechanism has not been well studied. Here, we demonstrated that high glucose (HG) induced the collagen synthesis by activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome, leading to caspase‐1 activation, interleukin‐1β (IL‐1β) and IL‐18 secretion in neonatal rat cardiac fibroblasts. Moreover, we used a high‐glucose model with neonatal rat cardiac fibroblasts and showed that the activation of ROS and P2X7R was augmented and that ROS‐ and P2X7R‐mediated NLRP3 inflammasome activation was critical for the collagen synthesis. Inhibition of ROS and P2X7R decreased NLRP3 inflammasome‐mediated collagen synthesis, similar to the effects of H3 relaxin. Furthermore, H3 relaxin reduced the collagen synthesis via ROS‐ and P2X7R‐mediated NLRP3 inflammasome activation in response to HG. These results provide a mechanism by which H3 relaxin alleviates NLRP3 inflammasome‐mediated collagen synthesis through the inhibition of ROS and P2X7R under HG conditions and suggest that H3 relaxin represents a potential drug for alleviating cardiac fibrosis in diabetic cardiomyopathy. 相似文献

The cyclic dinucleotides 3'‐5'diadenylate (c‐diAMP) and 3'‐5' diguanylate (c‐diGMP) are important bacterial second messengers that have recently been shown to stimulate the secretion of type I Interferons (IFN‐Is) through the c‐diGMP‐binding protein MPYS/STING. Here, we show that physiologically relevant levels of cyclic dinucleotides also stimulate a robust secretion of IL‐1β through the NLRP3 inflammasome. Intriguingly, this response is independent of MPYS/STING. Consistent with most NLRP3 inflammasome activators, the response to c‐diGMP is dependent on the mobilization of potassium and calcium ions. However, in contrast to other NLRP3 inflammasome activators, this response is not associated with significant changes in mitochondrial potential or the generation of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species. Thus, cyclic dinucleotides activate the NLRP3 inflammasome through a unique pathway that could have evolved to detect pervasive bacterial pathogen‐associated molecular patterns associated with intracellular infections. 相似文献

Cytolethal distending toxins (Cdt) are a family of toxins produced by several human pathogens which infect mucocutaneous tissue and induce inflammatory disease. We have previously demonstrated that the Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans Cdt induces a pro‐inflammatory response from human macrophages which involves activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome. We now demonstrate that in addition to activating caspase‐1 (canonical inflammasome), Cdt treatment leads to caspase‐4 activation and involvement of the noncanonical inflammasome. Cdt‐treated cells exhibit pyroptosis characterised by cleavage of gasdermin‐D (GSDMD), release of HMGB1 at 24 hr and LDH at 48 hr. Inhibition of either the canonical (caspase‐1) or noncanonical (caspase‐4) inflammasome blocks both Cdt‐induced release of IL‐1β and induction of pyroptosis. Analysis of upstream events indicates that Cdt induces Syk phosphorylation (activation); furthermore, blockade of Syk expression and inhibition of pSyk activity inhibit both Cdt‐induced cytokine release and pyroptosis. Finally, we demonstrate that increases in pSyk are dependent upon Cdt‐induced activation of GSK3β. These studies advance our understanding of Cdt function and provide new insight into the virulence potential of Cdt in mediating the pathogenesis of disease caused by Cdt‐producing organisms such as A. actinomycetemcomitans. 相似文献

Tubulointerstitial inflammation plays a key role in the pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy (DN). Interleukin-1β (IL-1β) is the key proinflammatory cytokine associated with tubulointerstitial inflammation. The NLRP3 inflammasome regulates IL-1β activation and secretion. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) represents the main mediator of NLRP3 inflammasome activation. We previously reported that CD36, a class B scavenger receptor, mediates ROS production in DN. Here, we determined whether CD36 is involved in NLRP3 inflammasome activation and explored the underlying mechanisms. We observed that high glucose induced-NLRP3 inflammasome activation mediate IL-1β secretion, caspase-1 activation, and apoptosis in HK-2 cells. In addition, the levels of CD36, NLRP3, and IL-1β expression (protein and mRNA) were all significantly increased under high glucose conditions. CD36 knockdown resulted in decreased NLRP3 activation and IL-1β secretion. CD36 knockdown or the addition of MitoTempo significantly inhibited ROS production in HK-2 cells. CD36 overexpression enhanced NLRP3 activation, which was reduced by MitoTempo. High glucose levels induced a change in the metabolism of HK-2 cells from fatty acid oxidation (FAO) to glycolysis, which promoted mitochondrial ROS (mtROS) production after 72 h. CD36 knockdown increased the level of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activity and mitochondrial FAO, which was accompanied by the inhibition of NLRP3 and IL-1β. The in vivo experimental results indicate that an inhibition of CD36 could protect diabetic db/db mice from tubulointerstitial inflammation and tubular epithelial cell apoptosis. CD36 mediates mtROS production and NLRP3 inflammasome activation in db/db mice. CD36 inhibition upregulated the level of FAO-related enzymes and AMPK activity in db/db mice. These results suggest that NLRP3 inflammasome activation is mediated by CD36 in renal tubular epithelial cells in DN, which suppresses mitochondrial FAO and stimulates mtROS production.Subject terms: Biochemistry, Cell biology 相似文献

Spinal cord injury (SCI) is one kind of severe traumatic injury, resulting in systemic inflammatory response syndrome and secondary lung injury, which is an important pathological basis of respiratory complications. The nucleotide-binding domain-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome is an important cytosolic protein complex in many inflammatory diseases. Hence, it is inescapable to explore the effect of inhibition of NLRP3 inflammasome by inhibitors in a mouse SCI model, which was conducted by using the method of 30-G closing force aneurysm clipping at T6–T7 spinal segment for 1 min, followed by assessment of edema, histology, alveolar type II cell apoptosis, mitochondrial dysfunction, and neutrophil infiltration. In brief, our results showed that, NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitor BAY 11-7082 or A438079 inhibited activation of NLRP3 inflammasome, alleviated mitochondrial dysfunction, the number of macrophage and neutrophil, thereby attenuating alveolar type II cell apoptosis, lung edema, and histological injury. Taken together, our data reveal that NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitor BAY 11-7082 or A438079 attenuates the inflammatory response, reverses mitochondrial dysfunction, and subsequently alleviates secondary lung injury following SCI. 相似文献

Numerous atypical mycobacteria, including Mycobacterium abscessus (Mabc), cause nontuberculous mycobacterial infections, which present a serious public health threat. Inflammasome activation is involved in host defense and the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases. However, inflammasome activation has not been widely characterized in human macrophages infected with atypical mycobacteria. Here, we demonstrate that Mabc robustly activates the nucleotide binding and oligomerization domain-like receptor family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome via dectin-1/Syk-dependent signaling and the cytoplasmic scaffold protein p62/SQSTM1 (p62) in human macrophages. Both dectin-1 and Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) were required for Mabc-induced mRNA expression of pro-interleukin (IL)-1β, cathelicidin human cationic antimicrobial protein-18/LL-37 and β-defensin 4 (DEFB4). Dectin-1-dependent Syk signaling, but not that of MyD88, led to the activation of caspase-1 and secretion of IL-1β through the activation of an NLRP3/apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a caspase recruitment domain (ASC) inflammasome. Additionally, potassium efflux was required for Mabc-induced NLRP3/ASC inflammasome activation. Furthermore, Mabc-induced p62 expression was critically involved in NLRP3 inflammasome activation in human macrophages. Finally, NLRP3/ASC was critical for the inflammasome in antimicrobial responses to Mabc infection. Taken together, these data demonstrate the induction mechanism of the NLRP3/ASC inflammasome and its role in innate immunity to Mabc infection. 相似文献

Viral infection triggers host innate immune responses, which primarily include the activation of type I interferon (IFN) signaling and inflammasomes. Here, we report that Zika virus (ZIKV) infection triggers NLRP3 inflammasome activation, which is further enhanced by viral non‐structural protein NS1 to benefit its replication. NS1 recruits the host deubiquitinase USP8 to cleave K11‐linked poly‐ubiquitin chains from caspase‐1 at Lys134, thus inhibiting the proteasomal degradation of caspase‐1. The enhanced stabilization of caspase‐1 by NS1 promotes the cleavage of cGAS, which recognizes mitochondrial DNA release and initiates type I IFN signaling during ZIKV infection. NLRP3 deficiency increases type I IFN production and strengthens host resistance to ZIKVin vitro and in vivo. Taken together, our work unravels a novel antagonistic mechanism employed by ZIKV to suppress host immune response by manipulating the interplay between inflammasome and type I IFN signaling, which might guide the rational design of therapeutics in the future. 相似文献

Streptococcus sanguinis is frequently isolated from the blood of patients with infective endocarditis and contributes to the pathology of this disease through induction of interleukin (IL)‐1β responsible for the development of the disease. However, the mechanism of IL‐1β induction remains unknown. In this study, S. sanguinis activated a murine dendritic cell (DC) to induce IL‐1β and this activity was attenuated by silencing the mRNAs of nucleotide‐binding domain‐like receptor containing protein 3 (NLRP3) and caspase‐1. S. sanguinis induced IL‐1β production in murine bone marrow‐derived macrophage, but this activity was significantly reduced in bone marrow‐derived macrophages from NLRP3‐, apoptosis‐associated speck‐like protein containing a caspase‐recruitment domain‐, and caspase‐1‐deficient mice. DC phagocytosed S. sanguinis cells, followed by the release of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). The ATP‐degradating enzyme attenuated the release of ATP and IL‐1β. The inhibitors for ATP receptor reduced IL‐1β release in DC. These results strongly suggest that S. sanguinis has the activity to induce IL‐1β through the NLRP3 inflammasome in macrophage and DC and interaction of purinergic receptors with ATP released is involved in expression of the activity. 相似文献

Amyloid β (Aβ)‐induced chronic inflammation is believed to be a key pathogenic process in early‐stage age‐related macular degeneration (AMD). Nucleotide oligomerization domain (NOD)‐like receptor family, pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome activation triggered by Aβ is responsible for retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) dysfunction in the onset of AMD; however, the detailed molecular mechanism remains unclear. In this study, we investigated the involvement of NADPH oxidase‐ and mitochondria‐derived reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the process of Aβ1–40‐induced NLRP3 inflammasome activation in LPS‐primed ARPE‐19 cells. The results showed that Aβ1–40 could induce excessive ROS generation, MAPK/NF‐κB signaling activation and subsequently NLRP3 inflammasome activation in LPS‐primed ARPE‐19 cells. Furthermore, the inductive effect of Aβ1–40 on NLRP3 inflammasome activation was mediated in a manner dependent on NADPH oxidase‐ and mitochondria‐derived ROS. Our findings may provide a novel insight into the molecular mechanism by which Aβ contributes to the early‐stage AMD. 相似文献
