FADD and caspase-8 mediate priming and activation of the canonical and noncanonical Nlrp3 inflammasomes.
The Nlrp3 inflammasome is critical for host immunity, but the mechanisms controlling its activation are enigmatic. In this study, we show that loss of FADD or caspase-8 in a RIP3-deficient background, but not RIP3 deficiency alone, hampered transcriptional priming and posttranslational activation of the canonical and noncanonical Nlrp3 inflammasome. Deletion of caspase-8 in the presence or abse...
متن کاملNoncanonical Inflammasomes: Caspase-11 Activation and Effector Mechanisms
Inflammasomes are cytosolic, multiprotein complexes assembled by members of the NOD-like receptor (NLR) and PYHIN protein families in response to pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and danger signals, and serve as activation platforms for caspase-1. Recently, a new noncanonical inflammasome pathway has been described that activates caspase-11, an understudied pro-inflammatory caspas...
متن کاملCaspase-1 inflammasomes in infection and inflammation.
Nucleotide-binding and oligomerization domain-like receptors (NLRs) constitute a family of germline-encoded pattern-recognition receptors, which allow the host to respond rapidly to a wide variety of pathogenic microorganisms. Here, we discuss recent advances in the study of a subset of NLRs, which control the activation of caspase-1 through the assembly of large protein complexes, inflammasome...
متن کاملThe Non-receptor Tyrosine Kinase Tec Controls Assembly and Activity of the Noncanonical Caspase-8 Inflammasome
Tec family kinases are intracellular non-receptor tyrosine kinases implicated in numerous functions, including T cell and B cell regulation. However, a role in microbial pathogenesis has not been described. Here, we identified Tec kinase as a novel key mediator of the inflammatory immune response in macrophages invaded by the human fungal pathogen C. albicans. Tec is required for both activatio...
متن کاملThe effects of indirect exposure of nanosilver on caspase-8 and caspase-9 levels in liver and brain of suckling rats
Objective(s): The adverse health effects of nanosilver (AgNp) on adult animal models have been well documented. However, data is scarce regarding the toxic effects of AgNp on sensitive developmental stages. The present study aimed to investigate the effects of maternal milk exposure to AgNp on apoptosis induction in the liver and brain of the offspring of rats. Materials and Methods: Lact...
