BRCC3-Mediated NLRP3 Deubiquitylation Promotes Inflammasome Activation and Atherosclerosis in Tet2 Clonal Hematopoiesis
2 Oct 2023
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Clonal hematopoiesis (CH) has emerged as an independent risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, with activation of macrophage inflammasomes as a potential underlying mechanism. The NLRP3 (NLR family pyrin domain containing 3) inflammasome has a key role in promoting atherosclerosis in mouse models of Tet2 CH, whereas inhibition of the inflammasome product interleukin-1β appeared to...
