NLRP3 Knockdown Modulates Pyroptosis and Ferroptosis in DCM
2026-05-25
Wang et al. (2024) elucidate the mechanistic relationship between NLRP3 inflammasome activity, mitochondrial ROS, and regulated cell death pathways—pyroptosis and ferroptosis—in diabetic cardiomyopathy. Their findings reveal that NLRP3 knockdown protects cardiac cells from high-glucose-induced injury, and that mitochondrial ROS promotion can override this protection, highlighting potential therapeutic targets for diabetic heart disease.
