The possible role of miR-194-5p in brain and neurodegenerative diseases has been reported, but its role in intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) has not been studied. This study estimated the mechanism of miR-194-5p in ICH. ICH rat model was established by injecting collagenase type VII. miR-194-5p expression in brain tissue of ICH rats was overexpressed by injection of miR-194-5p agomir. Then neurological function score and brain water content were measured. The morphological changes of brain tissue and neuronal apoptosis were evaluated by histological staining. Levels of NLRP3 inflammasomes, IL-1β and IL-18 were measured. The target relation between miR-194-5p and TRAF6 was verified and the binding of TRAF6 to NLRP3 was explored. miR-194-5p was decreased in ICH rats. After overexpression of miR-194-5p, the neuropathological injury in ICH rats was significantly reduced, and NLRP3-mediated inflammatory injury was inhibited. miR-194-5p targeted TRAF6. TRAF6 interacted with NLRP3 to promote the activation of NLRP3 inflammasomes. Overexpression of miR-194-5p reduced the interaction between TRAF6 and NLRP3, thereby alleviating the neuroinflammation. Collectively, overexpression of miR-194-5p reduced the TRAF6/NLRP3 interaction, thus inhibiting the activation of NLRP3 inflammasomes and reducing neuroinflammation during ICH. This study may shed new light on ICH treatment.

Dysregulation of NLRP3 signaling can trigger various inflammatory responses in the brain, contributing to the development of neurodegenerative diseases such as ischemic stroke, vascular dementia (VaD), Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Therefore, the NLRP3 signaling pathway is a promising therapeutic target for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases, including VaD.

Background: Inflammatory diseases impair the reparative properties of endothelial progenitor cells (EPC); however, the involvement of diabetes in EPC dysfunction associated with myocardial infarction (MI) remains unknown.
Methods: A model was established combining high-fat diet (HFD)/streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic mice with myocardial infarction. The therapeutic effects of transplanted wild-type EPC, Nlrp3 knockout EPC, and Nlrp3 overexpression EPC were evaluated.

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) precipitates a neuroinflammatory cascade, with the NLRP3 inflammasome emerging as a critical mediator. This review scrutinizes the complex activation pathways of the NLRP3 inflammasome by underscoring the intricate interplay between calcium signaling, mitochondrial disturbances, redox imbalances, lysosomal integrity, and autophagy. It is hypothesized that a combination therapy approach-integrating NF-κB pathway inhibitors with NLRP3 inflammasome antagonists-holds the potential to synergistically dampen the inflammatory storm associated with TBI.
