Taken together, these data indicate that ER, a powerful and specific NLRP3 inhibitor, has multiple anti-HUA, anti-gout and anti-inflammatory effects. Our investigation is designed to experimentally support the conventional use of ER-containing classical herbal formulas in the treatment of HUA-related disorders and may add a new dimension to the clinical application of ER.

Z25 and Z08 can reduce the expression level of CMPK2 mRNA and protein, thereby inhibiting NLRP3 and alleviating the development of severe viral pneumonia. In conclusion, the inflammatory response mediated by CMPK2 is the common molecular mechanism of severe pneumonia induced by viral infection, and Z25 and Z08 can effectively alleviate viral infection and severe pneumonia through this mechanism.

Journal: Dicoumarol attenuates NLRP3 inflammasome activation to inhibit inflammation and fibrosis in knee osteoarthritis. (Pubmed Central) - Apr 23, 2024 Mechanistic studies demonstrated that dicoumarol did not affect NF??B signaling, but it did directly interact with NOD?like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) to promote its protein degradation, which could be reversed by MG132, but not NH4Cl...Furthermore, the inflammation and fibrosis of the knee joints were inhibited in rats. In conclusion, the present findings demonstrated that dicoumarol could impede the progression of KOA by inhibiting NLRP3 activation, providing a potential treatment strategy for KOA.

Furthermore, the common molecular mechanism of NLRP3-OPPs was clarified by the presence of toxicity effector groups (benzene ring, nitrogen/oxygen-containing functional group); =O, -O-, or =S (active) groups; and combination residues (Gly271, Asp272). This finding provided valuable insights into exploring the common mechanisms of multiple threats and developing effective therapeutic strategies to prevent OPPs poisoning.

The results in a mouse acute peritonitis model revealed that H28 effectively inhibit the NLRP3 inflammasome pathway, demonstrating their anti-inflammatory properties. Our findings strongly support the further development of H28 as potential lead compound for treating NLRP3-related diseases.
