Abstract
The use of biomaterials and implants for joint replacement, fracture fixation, spinal stabilization and other orthopedic indications has revolutionized patient care by reliably decreasing pain and improving function. These surgical procedures always invoke an acute inflammatory reaction initially, that in most cases, readily subsides. Occasionally, chronic inflammation around the implant develops and persists; this results in unremitting pain and compromises function. The etiology of chronic inflammation may be specific, such as with infection, or be unknown. The histological hallmarks of chronic inflammation include activated macrophages, fibroblasts, T cell subsets, and other cells of the innate immune system. The presence of cells of the adaptive immune system usually indicates allergic reactions to metallic haptens. A foreign body reaction is composed of activated macrophages, giant cells, fibroblasts, and other cells often distributed in a characteristic histological arrangement; this reaction is usually due to particulate debris and other byproducts from the biomaterials used in the implant. Both chronic inflammation and the foreign body response have adverse biological effects on the integration of the implant with the surrounding tissues. Strategies to mitigate chronic inflammation and the foreign body response will enhance the initial incorporation and longevity of the implant, and thereby, improve long-term pain relief and overall function for the patient. The seminal research performed in the laboratory of Dr. James Anderson and co-workers has provided an inspirational and driving force for our laboratory's work on the interactions and crosstalk among cells of the mesenchymal, immune, and vascular lineages, and orthopedic biomaterials. Dr. Anderson's delineation of the fundamental biologic processes and mechanisms underlying acute and chronic inflammation, the foreign body response, resolution, and eventual functional integration of implants in different organ systems has provided researchers with a strategic approach to the use of biomaterials to improve health in numerous clinical scenarios.

Front Immunol 2024; 15:1397432. [PMID: 38751427 PMCID: PMC11094288 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2024.1397432] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/07/2024] [Accepted: 04/17/2024] [Indexed: 05/18/2024] Open
Abstract
Introduction The release of mature interleukin (IL-) 1β from osteoblasts in response to danger signals is tightly regulated by the nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain leucine-rich repeat and pyrin-containing protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome. These danger signals include wear products resulting from aseptic loosening of joint arthroplasty. However, inflammasome activation requires two different signals: a nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB)-activating priming signal and an actual inflammasome-activating signal. Since human osteoblasts react to wear particles via Toll-like receptors (TLR), particles may represent an inflammasome activator that can induce both signals. Methods Temporal gene expression profiles of TLRs and associated intracellular signaling pathways were determined to investigate the period when human osteoblasts take up metallic wear particles after initial contact and initiate a molecular response. For this purpose, human osteoblasts were treated with metallic particles derived from cobalt-chromium alloy (CoCr), lipopolysaccharides (LPS), and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF) alone or in combination for incubation times ranging from one hour to three days. Shortly after adding the particles, their uptake was observed by the change in cell morphology and spectral data. Results Exposure of osteoblasts to particles alone increased NLRP3 inflammasome-associated genes. The response was not significantly enhanced when cells were treated with CoCr + LPS or CoCr + TNF, whereas inflammation markers were induced. Despite an increase in genes related to the NLRP3 inflammasome, the release of IL-1β was unaffected after contact with CoCr particles. Discussion Although CoCr particles affect the expression of NLRP3 inflammasome-associated genes, a single stimulus was not sufficient to prime and activate the inflammasome. TNF was able to prime the NLRP3 inflammasome of human osteoblasts.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Wear particles induce inflammation and the further osteolysis around the prosthesis, has been proven to be the main cause of aseptic hip joint loosening. In this research, we aimed to clarify whether human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (HUCMSCs) could inhibit the titanium particles-induced osteolysis and shed light upon its mechanism. METHODS The expression of chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 2 (CCL2), chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 3 (CCL3) and chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 5 (CCL5) were examinjed in clinical specimens of aseptic hip prosthesis loosening patients. Local injection of lentivirus that knocked down CCL2 or CCL3 in a cranial osteolysis mice model were used to exam the effect of CCL2 and CCL3 on titanium particles-induced osteolysis in vivo. Transwell assay was used to examine the effect of CCL2 and CCL3 on titanium particles-induced activation of macrophage in vitro. Furthermore, the therapeutic effect of HUCMSCs, and exosomes from HUCMSCs were also examed in vivo and vitro. Immunohistochemical and real-time PCR were used to examine the expression of relative pathways. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Student-Newman-Keuls post hoc t test were used to analyze the results and determine the statistical significance of the differences. RESULTS Results showed that titanium particles caused the osteolysis at the mice cranial in vivo and a large number of macrophages that migrated, while local injection of HUCMSCs and exosomes did inhibit the cranial osteolysis and migration. An exosome inhibitor GW4869 significantly increased the osteolysis area in the mice cranium osteolysis model, and increased the number of migrated macrophages. Immunohistochemical results suggested that the expression of CCL2, CCL3 and CD68 in the cranial in Titanium particles mice increased significantly, but was significantly reduced by HUCMSCs or exosomes. HUCMSC and exosomes down-regulate the expression of CCL3 in vitro and in vivo. CONCLUSION HUCMSCs and HUCMSC-derived exosomes could suppress the titanium particles-induced osteolysis in mice through inhibiting chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 2, chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 3.

Abstract
Inflammatory reactions are part of a complex biological response that plays a vital role in the appearance of various stimuli resulting from tissue and cell damage, the invasion of pathogenic bacteria, and the formation of the subsequent adaptive immune response. The production of many triggers and mediators of inflammation, which are inducers of pro-inflammatory factors, is controlled by numerous differentiation programs, through which inflammation is resolved and tissue homeostasis is restored. However, prolonged inflammatory responses or dysregulation of pro-inflammatory mechanisms can lead to chronic inflammation. Modern advances in biotechnology have made it possible to characterize the anti-inflammatory activity of phlorotannins, polyphenolic compounds from brown seaweed, and the mechanisms by which they modulate the inflammatory response. The purpose of this review is to analyze and summarize the results of numerous experimental in vitro and in vivo studies, illustrating the regulatory mechanisms of these compounds, which have a wide range of biological effects on the body. The results of these studies and the need for further research are discussed.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Joint replacement has revolutionized the treatment of end-stage arthritis. We highlight the key role of macrophages in the innate immune system in helping to ensure that the prosthesis-host interface remains biologically robust. RECENT FINDINGS Osteoimmunology is of great interest to researchers investigating the fundamental biological and material aspects of joint replacement. Constant communication between cells of the monocyte/macrophage/osteoclast lineage and the mesenchymal stem cell-osteoblast lineage determines whether a durable prosthesis-implant interface is obtained, or whether implant loosening occurs. Tissue and circulating monocytes/macrophages provide local surveillance of stimuli such as the presence of byproducts of wear and can quickly polarize to pro- and anti-inflammatory phenotypes to re-establish tissue homeostasis. When these mechanisms fail, periprosthetic osteolysis results in progressive bone loss and painful failure of mechanical fixation. Immune modulation of the periprosthetic microenvironment is a potential intervention to facilitate long-term durability of prosthetic interfaces.

Abstract
To date, the exact role of specific Toll-like receptors (TLRs) in regulating immune reactivity to metallic byproducts of orthopedic implants has not been fully clarified. In light of the situation, our objective in this investigation was to assess the expression levels of surface TLRs after metallic particle and ion exposure in an established animal model. Ten female BALB/c mice in each group received intra-articular injections of phosphate buffer (PBS) (control), metallic particles (MP), and metallic ions (MI), respectively. Seven days later, immunohistochemical staining was undertaken in the synovial layer of the murine knee joints using anti-TLR 1, 2, 4, 5, and 6 polyclonal antibodies. In addition to increased cellular infiltrates and a hyperplastic synovial membrane, the MP group showed significantly elevated TLR expression compared to the control group and had higher TLR 1-, 4-, and 6-positive cells than the MI group (p < 0.0167). TLR 4- and TLR 6-positive cells were significantly augmented for the MI group compared to the control group (p < 0.0167). Additionally, greenish corrosion particles found in the necrotic tissue suggested that metallic particles might release a certain level of locally toxic metallic ions in vivo.

Abstract
Nucleotide-binding domain and leucine-rich repeat (LRR)-containing family protein 3 (NLRP3) regulated the maturation of inflammation-related cytokines by forming NLRP3 inflammasome, which plays pivotal roles in sepsis pathogenesis. In this study, we evaluated the genetic association of NLRP3 polymorphisms with sepsis (640 patients and 769 controls) and characterized the impact of NLRP3 polymorphisms on NLRP3 expression and inflammatory responses. No significant differences were observed in genotype/allelic frequencies of NLRP3 29940G>C between sepsis cases and controls. The G allele was significantly overrepresented in patients with septic shock than those in sepsis subgroup, and the GC/GG genetypes were related to the 28-day mortality of sepsis. Lipopolysaccharide challenge to peripheral blood mononuclear cells showed a significant suppression of NLRP3 mRNA expression and release of IL-1β and TNF-α in CC compared with the GC/GG genotype category. Functional experiments with luciferase reporter vectors containing the NLRP3 3′-UTR with the 29940 G-to-C variation in HUVECs and THP-1 cells showed a potential suppressive effect of miR-146a on NLRP3 transcription in the presence of the C allele. Taken together, these results demonstrated that the 29940 G-to-C mutation within the NLRP3 3′-UTR was a gain-of-function alteration that caused the suppression of NLRP3 expression and downstream inflammatory cytokine production via binding with miR-146a, which ultimately protected patients against susceptibility to sepsis progression and poor clinical outcome.

Abstract
Alcoholism is a global socially significant problem and still remains one of the leading causes of disability and premature death. One of the main signs of the disease is the loss of cognitive control over the amount of alcohol consumed. Among the mechanisms of the development of this pathology, changes in neuroimmune mechanisms occurring in the brain during prolonged alcohol consumption and its withdrawal have recently become the focus of numerous studies. Ethanol consumption leads to the activation of neuroimmune signaling in the central nervous system through many subtypes of Toll-like receptors (TLRs), as well as release of their endogenous agonists (high-mobility group protein B1 (HMGB1), S100 protein, heat shock proteins (HSPs), and extracellular matrix degradation proteins). TLR activation triggers intracellular molecular cascades of reactions leading to increased expression of genes of the innate immune system, particularly, proinflammatory cytokines, causing further development of a persistent neuroinflammatory process in the central nervous system. This leads to death of neurons and neuroglial cells in various brain structures, primarily in those associated with the development of a pathological craving for alcohol. In addition, there is evidence that some subtypes of TLRs (TLR3, TLR4) are able to form heterodimers with neuropeptide receptors, thereby possibly playing other roles in the central nervous system, in addition to participating in the activation of the innate immune system.

Abstract
Axial SpA (axSpA), encompassing AS, is a multifactorial disease that localizes to sites of high spinal biomechanical stress. Much has been written on T cells and adaptive immunity in axSpA, which is understandable given the very strong HLA-B27 disease association. Extra-axial disease characteristically involves the anterior uveal tract, aortic root, lung apex and terminal ileum. Under recent classification, axSpA is classified as an intermediate between autoimmunity and autoinflammatory disease, with the latter term being synonymous with innate immune dysregulation. The purpose of this review is to evaluate the ‘danger signals’ from both the exogenous intestinal microbiotal adjuvants or pathogen-associated molecular patterns that access the circulation and endogenously derived damaged self-tissue or damage-associated molecular patterns derived from entheses and other sites of high biomechanical stress or damage that may serve as key drivers of axSpA onset, evolution, disease flares and eventual outcomes.

Abstract
Osteonecrosis of the epiphyseal and metaphyseal regions of major weight-bearing bones of the extremities is a condition that is associated with local death of bone cells and marrow in the afflicted compartment. Chronic inflammation is a prominent feature of osteonecrosis. If the persistent inflammation is not resolved, this process will result in progressive collapse and subsequent degenerative arthritis. In the pre-collapse stage of osteonecrosis, attempt at joint preservation rather than joint replacement in this younger population with osteonecrosis is a major clinical objective. In this regard, core decompression, with/without local injection of bone marrow aspirate concentrate (BMAC), is an accepted and evidence-based method to help arrest the progression and improve the outcome of early-stage osteonecrosis. However, some patients do not respond favorably to this treatment. Thus, it is prudent to consider strategies to mitigate chronic inflammation concurrent with addressing the deficiencies in osteogenesis and vasculogenesis in order to save the affected joint. Interestingly, the processes of inflammation, osteonecrosis, and bone healing are highly inter-related. Therefore, modulating the biological processes and crosstalk among cells of the innate immune system, the mesenchymal stem cell-osteoblast lineage and others are important to providing the local microenvironment for resolution of inflammation and subsequent repair. This review summarizes the clinical and biologic principles associated with osteonecrosis and provides potential cutting-end strategies for modulating chronic inflammation and facilitating osteogenesis and vasculogenesis using local interventions. Although these studies are still in the preclinical stages, it is hoped that safe, efficacious, and cost-effective interventions will be developed to save the host’s natural joint.

Abstract
Alcohol use is a global socially significant problem that remains one of the leading risk factors for disability and premature death. One of the main pathological characteristics of alcoholism is the loss of cognitive control over the amount of consumed alcohol. Growing body of evidence suggests that alterations of neuroimmune communication occurring in the brain during prolonged alcoholization are one of the main mechanisms responsible for the development of this pathology. Ethanol consumption leads to activation of neuroimmune signaling in the central nervous system through many types of Toll-like receptors (TLRs), as well as the release of their endogenous agonists (HMGB1 protein, S100 protein, heat shock proteins, extracellular matrix breakdown proteins). Activation of TLRs triggers intracellular molecular cascades leading to increased expression of the innate immune system genes, particularly proinflammatory cytokines, subsequently causing the development of a persistent neuroinflammatory process in the central nervous system, which results in massive death of neurons and glial cells in the brain structures, which are primarily associated with the development of a pathological craving for alcohol. In addition, some subtypes of TLRs are capable of forming heterodimers with neuropeptide receptors (corticoliberin, orexin, ghrelin receptors), and may also have other functional relationships.

Tumor necrosis factor primes and metal particles activate the NLRP3 inflammasome in human primary macrophages. Acta Biomater 2020; 108:347-357. [PMID: 32194260 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2020.03.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 26] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/02/2019] [Revised: 03/06/2020] [Accepted: 03/11/2020] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
Aseptic loosening of total joint replacements is driven by a macrophage-mediated inflammatory reaction to implant-derived wear particles. Phagocytosis of implant debris has been suggested to activate the NLRP3 inflammasome leading to secretion of interleukin (IL)-1β. However, factors and molecular mechanisms driving the particle-induced inflammasome activation are yet to be fully elucidated. In this study, we investigated the inflammasome response of human primary macrophages to titanium, chromium, and molybdenum particles in vitro. We observed that particles alone were not sufficient to induce IL-1β secretion, but an additional priming signal-such as bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-was required to license the inflammasome activation. By using specific inhibitors against the inflammasome signaling pathway, we demonstrate that the particle-induced IL-1β secretion depended upon activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome. We further hypothesized that tumor necrosis factor (TNF) could substitute for LPS as a priming signal, and found that particle stimulation together with preceding TNF treatment resulted in inflammasome-dependent IL-1β production as well. Our results show that the NLRP3 inflammasome mediates wear particle responses in human primary macrophages, and its activation does not necessarily require the presence of bacterial components, but can be induced under aseptic conditions by TNF priming. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: This study was conducted to elucidate the molecular mechanisms of metal particle-induced IL-1β secretion in human primary macrophages. Production of this pro-inflammatory mediator from wear particle-activated macrophages has been associated with increased bone loss around total joint replacements-a condition eventually requiring revision surgery. Our results confirm that together with a co-stimulatory priming signal, particles of common implant metals elicit macrophage-mediated IL-1β secretion through activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome pathway. We also present a concept of TNF priming in this context, demonstrating that the particle-related IL-1β secretion can take place in a truly sterile environment. Thus, inhibition of inflammasome signaling appears a means to prevent wear particle-induced inflammation and development of peri‑prosthetic osteolysis.

Abstract
Introduction: Total joint replacement is one of the most common, safe, and efficacious operations in all of surgery. However, one major long-standing and unresolved issue is the adverse biological reaction to byproducts of wear from the bearing surfaces and modular articulations. These inflammatory reactions are mediated by the innate and adaptive immune systems.Areas covered: We review the etiology and pathophysiology of implant debris-associated inflammation, the clinical presentation and detailed work-up of these cases, and the principles and outcomes of non-operative and operative management. Furthermore, we suggest future strategies for prevention and novel treatments of implant-related adverse biological reactions.Expert opinion: The generation of byproducts from joint replacements is inevitable, due to repetitive loading of the implants. A clear understanding of the relevant biological principles, clinical presentations, investigative measures and treatments for implant-associated inflammatory reactions and periprosthetic osteolysis will help identify and treat patients with this issue earlier and more effectively. Although progressive implant-associated osteolysis is currently a condition that is treated surgically, with further research, it is hoped that non-operative biological interventions could prolong the lifetime of joint replacements that are otherwise functional and still salvageable.

Abstract
Background Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are the most widely studied innate immunity receptors responsible for recognition of invading pathogens. Among the TLR family, TLR5 is the only that senses and recognizes flagellin, the major protein of bacterial flagella. TLR5 has been reported to be under overall purifying selection in mammals, with a small proportion of codons under positive selection. However, the variation of substitution rates among major mammalian groups has been neglected. Here, we studied the evolution of TLR5 in mammals, comparing the substitution rates among groups. Results In this study we analysed the TLR5 substitution rates in Euungulata, Carnivora, Chiroptera, Primata, Rodentia and Lagomorpha, groups. For that, Tajima’s relative rate test, Bayesian inference of evolutionary rates and genetic distances were estimated with CODEML’s branch model and RELAX. The combined results showed that in the Lagomorpha, Rodentia, Carnivora and Chiroptera lineages TLR5 is evolving at a higher substitution rate. The RELAX analysis further suggested a significant relaxation of selective pressures for the Lagomorpha (K = 0.22, p < 0.01), Rodentia (K = 0.58, p < 0.01) and Chiroptera (K = 0.65, p < 0.01) lineages and for the Carnivora ancestral branches (K = 0.13, p < 0.01). Conclusions Our results show that the TLR5 substitution rate is not uniform among mammals. In fact, among the different mammal groups studied, the Lagomorpha, Rodentia, Carnivora and Chiroptera are evolving faster. This evolutionary pattern could be explained by 1) the acquisition of new functions of TLR5 in the groups with higher substitution rate, i.e. TLR5 neofunctionalization, 2) by the beginning of a TLR5 pseudogenization in these groups due to some redundancy between the TLRs genes, or 3) an arms race between TLR5 and species-specific parasites.

Wear Particle-induced Priming of the NLRP3 Inflammasome Depends on Adherent Pathogen-associated Molecular Patterns and Their Cognate Toll-like Receptors: An In Vitro Study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Orthopaedic wear particles activate the NLRP3 inflammasome to produce active interleukin 1β (IL1β). However, the NLRP3 inflammasome must be primed before it can be activated, and it is unknown whether wear particles induce priming. Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are thought to mediate particle bioactivity. It remains controversial whether pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and/or alarmins are responsible for TLR activation by wear particles. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES (1) Does priming of the NLRP3 inflammasome by wear particles depend on adherent PAMPs? (2) Does priming of the NLRP3 inflammasome by wear particles depend on TLRs and TIRAP/Mal? (3) Does priming of the NLRP3 inflammasome by wear particles depend on cognate TLRs? (4) Does activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome by wear particles depend on adherent PAMPs? METHODS Immortalized murine macrophages were stimulated by as-received titanium particles with adherent bacterial debris, endotoxin-free titanium particles, or titanium particles with adherent ultrapure lipopolysaccharide. To study priming, NLRP3 and IL1β mRNA and IL1β protein levels were assessed in wild-type, TLR4, TLR2, and TIRAP/Mal macrophages. To study activation, IL1β protein secretion was assessed in wild-type macrophages preprimed with ultrapure lipopolysaccharide. RESULTS Compared with titanium particles with adherent bacterial debris, endotoxin-free titanium particles induced 86% less NLRP3 mRNA (0.05 ± 0.03 versus 0.35 ± 0.01 NLRP3/GAPDH, p < 0.001) and 91% less IL1β mRNA (0.02 ± 0.01 versus 0.22 ± 0.03 IL1β/GAPDH, p < 0.001). ProIL1β protein level was robustly increased in wild-type macrophages stimulated by particles with adherent PAMPs but was not detectably produced in macrophages stimulated by endotoxin-free particles. Adherence of ultrapure lipopolysaccharide to endotoxin-free particles reconstituted stimulation of NLRP3 and IL1β mRNA. Particles with adherent bacterial debris induced 79% less NLRP3 mRNA (0.09 ± 0.004 versus 0.43 ± 0.13 NLRP3/GAPDH, p < 0.001) and 40% less IL1β mRNA (0.09 ± 0.04 versus 0.15 ± 0.03 IL1β/GAPDH, p = 0.005) in TLR4 macrophages than in wild-type. Similarly, those particles induced 49% less NLRP3 mRNA (0.22 ± 0.10 versus 0.43 ± 0.13 NLRP3/GAPDH, p = 0.004) and 47% less IL1β mRNA (0.08 ± 0.02 versus 0.15 ± 0.03 IL1β/GAPDH, p = 0.012) in TIRAP/Mal macrophages than in wild-type. Particles with adherent ultrapure lipopolysaccharide induced 96% less NLRP3 mRNA (0.012 ± 0.001 versus 0.27 ± 0.05 NLRP3/GAPDH, p = 0.003) and 91% less IL1β mRNA (0.03 ± 0.01 versus 0.34 ± 0.07 IL1β/GAPDH, p < 0.001) expression in TLR4 macrophages than in wild-type. In contrast, those particles did not induce less NLRP3 and IL1β mRNA in TLR2 macrophages. IL1β protein secretion was equivalently induced by particles with adherent bacterial debris or by endotoxin-free particles in a time-dependent manner in wild-type macrophages. For example, particles with adherent bacterial debris induced 99% ± 2% of maximal IL1β secretion after 12 hours, whereas endotoxin-free particles induced 92% ± 11% (p > 0.5). CONCLUSIONS This cell culture study showed that adherent PAMPs are required for priming of the NLRP3 inflammasome by wear particles and this process is dependent on their cognate TLRs and TIRAP/Mal. In contrast, activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome by titanium particles is not dependent on adherent PAMPs. Animal and implant retrieval studies are needed to determine whether wear particles have similar effects on the NLRP3 inflammasome in vivo. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Our findings, together with recent findings that aseptic loosening associates with polymorphisms in the TIRAP/Mal locus, support that adherent PAMPs may contribute to aseptic loosening in patients undergoing arthroplasty.

Abstract
Ions released from metal implants have been associated with adverse tissue reactions and are therefore a major concern. Studies with macrophages have shown that cobalt, chromium, and nickel ions can activate the NLRP3 inflammasome, a multiprotein complex responsible for the activation of caspase-1 (a proteolytic enzyme converting pro-interleukin [IL]-1β to mature IL-1β). However, the mechanism(s) of inflammasome activation by metal ions remain largely unknown. The objectives of the present study were to determine if, in macrophages: 1. caspase-1 activation and IL-1β release induced by metal ions are oxidative stress-dependent; and 2. IL-1β release induced by metal ions is NF-κB signaling pathway-dependent. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-primed murine bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDM) were exposed to Co2+ (6-48 ppm), Cr3+ (100-500 ppm), or Ni2+ (12-96 ppm), in the presence or absence of a caspase-1 inhibitor (Z-WEHD-FMK), an antioxidant (L-ascorbic acid [L-AA]), or an NF-κB inhibitor (JSH-23). Culture supernatants were analyzed for caspase-1 by western blotting and/or IL-1β release by ELISA. Immunoblotting revealed the presence of caspase-1 (p20 subunit) in supernatants of BMDM incubated with Cr3+, but not with Ni2+ or Co2+. When L-AA (2 mM) was present with Cr3+, the caspase-1 p20 subunit was undetectable and IL-1β release decreased down to the level of the negative control, thereby demonstrating that caspase-1 activation and IL-1β release induced by Cr3+ was oxidative stress-dependent. ELISA demonstrated that Cr3+ induced the highest release of IL-1β, while Co2+ had no or limited effects. In the presence of Ni2+, the addition of L-AA (2 mM) also decreased IL-1β release, below the level of the negative control, suggesting that IL-1β release induced by Ni2+ was also oxidative stress-dependent. Finally, when present during both priming with LPS and activation with Cr3+, JSH-23 blocked IL-1β release, demonstrating NF-κB involvement. Overall, this study showed that while both Cr3+ and Ni2+ may be inducing inflammasome activation, Cr3+ is likely a more potent activator, acting through oxidative stress and the NF-κB signaling pathway.
