1 Echinatin effectively protects against NLRP3 inflammasome-driven diseases by targeting HSP90. echinatin NLR family, pyrin domain containing 3 Mus musculus
2 In this study, we showed that echinatin, the ingredient of the traditional herbal medicine licorice, effectively suppresses the activation of NLRP3 inflammasome in vitro and in vivo. echinatin NLR family, pyrin domain containing 3 Mus musculus
3 Further investigation revealed that echinatin exerts its inhibitory effect on NLRP3 inflammasome by binding to heat-shock protein 90 (HSP90), inhibiting its ATPase activity, and disrupting the association between the cochaperone SGT1 and HSP90-NLRP3. echinatin NLR family, pyrin domain containing 3 Mus musculus
4 Further investigation revealed that echinatin exerts its inhibitory effect on NLRP3 inflammasome by binding to heat-shock protein 90 (HSP90), inhibiting its ATPase activity, and disrupting the association between the cochaperone SGT1 and HSP90-NLRP3. echinatin NLR family, pyrin domain containing 3 Mus musculus
5 Importantly, in vivo experiments demonstrated that administration of echinatin obviously inhibits NLRP3 inflammasome activation and ameliorates LPS-induced septic shock and DSS-induced colitis in mice. echinatin NLR family, pyrin domain containing 3 Mus musculus
6 Collectively, our study identified echinatin as a novel inhibitor of NLRP3 inflammasome and may be developed as a potentially therapeutic approach for the treatment of NLRP3-driven diseases. echinatin NLR family, pyrin domain containing 3 Mus musculus
7 Collectively, our study identified echinatin as a novel inhibitor of NLRP3 inflammasome and may be developed as a potentially therapeutic approach for the treatment of NLRP3-driven diseases. echinatin NLR family, pyrin domain containing 3 Mus musculus
