Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the gastrointestinal tract affecting 1 in 100 Americans (around 2.4 million people) that can lead to disabling bowel symptoms and progressive bowel damage. Study provides direct evidence that NLRP3 signaling is over-activated in

Despite decades of effective environmental policy and improved air quality in the US, air pollution remains the greatest environmental health risk factor, contributing to 100,000 to 200,000 incremental deaths annually, primarily from fine particulate matter (PM 2.5 ) derived from pollutants

Molecular Neurobiology publication demonstrated that NLRP3 inflammasomes have an important role in the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis (“MS”) based on significant decreases in neuronal damage and demyelination resulting from NLRP3 inhibition in a mouse model of MS.

Paper reports that obesity exacerbates scarring of the heart’s muscular tissue (myocardial fibrosis) through recruitment of inflammasome ASC to the heart’s mitochondria, facilitating NLRP3 inflammasome assembly and activation leading to damaging inflammation Obesity, which affects over 650 million

Chronic kidney disease is most common in people 65 years and older. NLRP3 inflammasomes signaling in the kidneys’ filtration system (“glomerular podocytes”) occurs as early as middle age, leading to scarring, podocyte loss, and impaired function, which may be a critical contributor to a lower
