Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease. Recently, NLRP3 has been demonstrated to be closely related to RA. The objective of our research was to analyze the specific mechanism of NLRP3 in RA. The m6A levels of NLRP3 was detected with methylated RNA immunoprecipitation (MeRIP) kit. The mRNA and protein levels of related genes were tested with RT-qPCR and Western blot. The inflammatory factors levels were detected with ELISA kits. The cell proliferative ability was measured with CCK-8 and EdU staining assays. NLRP3 levels was prominently in synovial tissues and fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLS) from RA patients. NLRP3 silencing suppressed FLS proliferation and inflammatory factor levels. Additionally, ALKBH5 was found to bind with NLRP3, and ALKBH5 silencing suppressed FLS proliferation and inflammatory factor levels while NLRP3 overexpressing neutralized the role of ALKBH5 in FLS. Furthermore, m6A modified induced by ALKBH5 suppressed NLRP3 mRNA level through YTHDC2 in RA, and NLRP3 is a hinge factor in RA progression.

Cerebral ischemia-induced pyroptosis contributes to the dissemination of neuroinflammation, and Nod-like receptor protein-3 (NLRP3) inflammasome plays a key role in this process. Previous studies have indicated that Genistein-3'-sodiumsulfonate (GSS) can inhibit neuroinflammation caused by cerebral ischemia, exert cerebroprotective effects, but its specific mechanism has not been comprehensively understood. The aim of this study was to explore the effect of GSS on ischemic stroke-induced cell pyroptosis.

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a complex progressive neurodegenerative disorder and the pathogenesis and treatment methods are unknown. This aim is to investigate the effects of long non coding RNA NEAT1 (LncRNA NEAT1) on 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP)-induced Parkinson's disease (PD). Immunoprecipitation and western blot were used to search for the effects of LncRNA NEAT1 on PD.

Background: Acute lung injury (ALI), one of the most severe respiratory system diseases, is prevalent worldwide. Annexin A1 (AnxA1) is an important member of the annexin superfamily, known for its wide range of physiological functions. However, its potential protective effect against lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced ALI remains unclear.
