    Abstract Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is a molecule that on one hand plays a central role in cellular energetics and which on the other is a ubiquitous signaling molecule when released into the extracellular media. Extracellular ATP accumulates in inflammatory environments where it acts as a damage-associated molecular pattern and activates the purinergic P2X receptor 7 (P2X7) in immune cells. P2X7 receptor activation induces the formation of the nucleotide-binding domain, leucine-rich-containing family, pyrin domain-containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome and the activation of the inflammatory caspase-1. Caspase-1 causes an inflammatory type of cell death called pyroptosis through the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines and intracellular content. Consequently, intense research efforts have been devoted to the design of novel anti-inflammatory therapies, focusing in particular on the P2X7 receptor and the NLRP3 pathway and the introduction of new blocking molecules in early phase clinical trials.

    Abstract IL-1β processing is one of the hallmarks of inflammasome activation and drives the initiation of the inflammatory response. For decades, Western blot or ELISA has been extensively used to study this inflammatory event. Here, we describe the use of a bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET) biosensor to monitor IL-1β processing in real time and in living macrophages either using a plate reader or a microscope.

    Abstract Inflammasomes are multiprotein complexes that signal by oligomerizing the apoptosis speck-like protein with caspase recruitment and activator domain (ASC) and are involved in multiple inflammatory, metabolic and degenerative diseases. Pharmacological targeting of specific inflammasomes with small molecules is leading to the development of novel drugs for most common diseases. The targeting of ASC oligomers will result in a pan-inflammasome treatment. In their study, Bertheloot et al (2022) developed specific anti-ASC nanobodies and showed their efficacy to disaggregate already formed ASC oligomers and to treat inflammatory diseases in animal models. This approach represents a novel biologic-based treatment for inflammasomes-initiated inflammatory diseases.

    Abstract Gasdermins have been identified as playing a prominent role in the innate immune response as the executors of a specific type of cell death called pyroptosis. Specific proteolytic cleavage of gasdermins generates an N-terminal that oligomerizes and forms pores in the cell membrane. Although pyroptosis has been widely described in mammals, the importance of gasdermins and gasdermin-like proteins in inducing cell death in other vertebrates, in invertebrates and in other taxa including fungi and bacteria is still being determined. Mammalian, fungal and bacterial gasdermins have in common the fact that they go through the same stages (such as proteolytic activation) when inducing membrane rupture, which suggests that pyroptosis is as an ancient mechanism. In this review, we summarize the evolution and function of the gasdermin and gasdermin-like proteins in animals, fungi and bacteria.

    Abstract The nucleotide-binding oligomerization and leucine-rich repeat receptor (NLR) protein family consists of important immune sensors that form inflammasomes, a cytosolic multi-protein platform that induces caspase-1 activation and is involved in different inflammatory pathologies. The NLR family pyrin domain containing 6 (NLRP6) is a receptor that can signal by forming inflammasomes, but which can also play an important role without forming inflammasomes. NLRP6 regulates intestinal homeostasis and inflammation, but also is involved in cancer, the nervous system or liver diseases, with both protective and deleterious consequences. In the present article, we review the different roles of NLRP6 in these processes and offer new insights into NLRP6 activation.
