Glutathione Transferase Omega-1 Regulates NLRP3 Inflammasome Activation through NEK7 Deglutathionylation
(2019)NLRP3 inflammasome activation contributes to chronic inflammationassociated with autoinflammatorydisease, yet understanding of NLRP3inflammasome regulation is incomplete.Hughes et al. show that thedeglutathionylating enzyme ... -
Glutathione Transferase Omega-1 Regulates NLRP3 Inflammasome Activation through NEK7 Deglutathionylation
(2019)The NLRP3 inflammasome is a cytosolic complex sensing phagocytosed material and various damage-associated molecular patterns, triggering production of the pro-inflammatory cytokines interleukin-1 beta (IL)-1β and IL-18 and ... -
The Immunomodulatory Metabolite Itaconate Modifies NLRP3 and Inhibits Inflammasome Activation
(2020)The Krebs cycle-derived metabolite itaconate is highly upregulated in inflammatory macrophages and exerts immunomodulatory effects through cysteine modifications on target proteins. The NLRP3 inflammasome, which cleaves ...
