Licochalcone B specifically inhibits the NLRP3 inflammasome by disrupting NEK7-NLRP3 interaction

Qiang Li et al.

Summary: The study identified Licochalcone B as a specific inhibitor of the NLRP3 inflammasome, which works by blocking the interaction between NLRP3 and NEK7 to suppress inflammasome activation, showing protective effects in mouse models of NLRP3-related diseases.

Anti-inflammatory activity of curcumin-loaded tetrahedral framework nucleic acids on acute gouty arthritis

Mei Zhang et al.

Summary: Gouty arthritis is a common inflammatory arthritis, and controlling inflammation is crucial for prevention. Scientists have synthesized a new material called Cur-TFNAs to enhance the effectiveness and bioavailability of curcumin, a natural anti-inflammatory drug. Cur-TFNAs showed better anti-inflammatory effects in in vivo and in vitro experiments compared with free curcumin.

Inflammasomes are activated in response to SARS-CoV-2 infection and are associated with COVID-19 severity in patients

Tamara S. Rodrigues et al.

Summary: The active NLRP3 inflammasome in response to SARS-CoV-2 infection is associated with disease severity in COVID-19 patients, with higher levels of IL-18 and Casp1p20 correlating with poor clinical outcomes. These findings suggest that inflammasomes may serve as markers of disease severity and potential therapeutic targets for COVID-19.

Echinatin effectively protects against NLRP3 inflammasome driven diseases by targeting HSP90

Guang Xu et al.

Summary: This study identified echinatin, a component of traditional herbal medicine licorice, as a potentially novel inhibitor of NLRP3 inflammasome activation in both in vitro and in vivo models. Echinatin was shown to exert inhibitory effects through its interaction with heat-shock protein 90 (HSP90), disrupting the formation of the HSP90-NLRP3 complex. The administration of echinatin demonstrated significant suppression of NLRP3 inflammasome activation and amelioration of inflammatory conditions in mouse models, suggesting its potential as a therapeutic approach for NLRP3-driven diseases.

Therapeutic potential of the target on NLRP3 inflammasome in multiple sclerosis

Shuai Shao et al.

Summary: Inflammasomes are multi-protein complexes that regulate the maturation and secretion of IL-1 beta and IL-18 in response to PAMPs or DAMPs in host cells. The NLRP3 inflammasome is well-understood in molecular mechanisms, serving as a promising therapeutic target in immune-related disorders such as multiple sclerosis (MS). Investigation of NLRP3 activation mechanisms in MS and experimental models may lead to new therapeutic strategies for the disease.

Cryptotanshinone specifically suppresses NLRP3 inflammasome activation and protects against inflammasome-mediated diseases

Hongbin Liu et al.

Summary: Cryptotanshinone is a specific inhibitor of the NLRP3 inflammasome, blocking its activation by inhibiting upstream signals such as Ca2+ signaling and mitochondrial reactive oxygen species induction. In mouse models, cryptotanshinone attenuates caspase-1 activation and IL-1 beta secretion in NLRP3 inflammasome-mediated diseases. These findings suggest that cryptotanshinone may be a promising therapeutic agent for such diseases.

Immunomodulatory effects of Radix isatidis polysaccharides in vitro and in vivo

Wei Tao et al.

Summary: Radix isatidis polysaccharides exhibit good immunomodulatory effects, enhancing macrophage activity and promoting the release of inflammatory mediators. It may be associated with Toll-like receptor-4 and showed improved immune function in mouse experiments when stimulated by inactivated herpes simplex virus type 2.

Dihydrotanshinone I Specifically Inhibits NLRP3 Inflammasome Activation and Protects Against Septic Shock In Vivo

Ziying Wei et al.

Summary: The study revealed that DHT specifically inhibits the activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome, has no effect on AIM2 or NLRC4 inflammasome activation, and does not influence potassium or calcium flux. Additionally, DHT suppresses the assembly of the NLRP3 inflammasome and shows significant therapeutic effects on NLRP3-mediated sepsis in mice.

Galectin-9 Regulates Monosodium Urate Crystal-Induced Gouty Inflammation Through the Modulation of Treg/Th17 Ratio

Adel Abo Mansour et al.

Summary: Gout is caused by the deposition of monosodium urate crystals in the joints, and the imbalance of T cells may impact the inflammatory response. Treatment with Gal-9 can reduce joint inflammation scores and modulate inflammatory cell levels, offering a new therapeutic strategy for tissue damage prevention.
