Wedelolactone exhibits regulatory effects on some inflammatory diseases. However, the anti-inflammatory mechanism of wedelolactone has not been entirely unravelled. Therefore, the present study focuses on investigating the mechanism of wedelolactone on NLRP3 inflammasome in macrophages and its influence on MSU-induced

Multiple organ perfusion is impaired in sepsis. Clinical studies suggest that persistent perfusion disturbances are prognostic of fatal outcome in sepsis. Pyroptosis occurs upon activation of caspases and their subsequent cleavage of gasdermin D (Gsdmd), resulting in Gsdmd-N (activated NH2-terminal

Loss-of-function mutations in proline-rich transmembrane protein-2 (PRRT2) cause paroxysmal disorders associated with defective Ca2+ dependence of glutamatergic transmission. We find that either acute or constitutive PRRT2 deletion induces a significant decrease in the amplitude of evoked excitatory postsynaptic currents (eEPSCs)

The NLRP3 inflammasome is formed by the sensor NLRP3, the adaptor ASC, and pro-caspase-1. Assembly and activation of the inflammasome trigger caspase-1-dependent cleavage of pro-IL-1β and pro-IL-18 into their secreted forms. Cigarette smoke is a risk factor for chronic inflammatory
