Abstract
- Activation of NLRP3 inflammasome is implicated in varieties of pathologies, the aim of the present study is to characterize the effect and mechanism of mitochondrial uncouplers on NLRP3 inflammasome activation by using three types of uncouplers, niclosamide, CCCP and BAM15. Niclosamide, CCCP and BAM15 inhibited LPS plus ATP-induced increases of NLRP3 protein and IL-1β mRNA levels in RAW264.7 macrophages and THP-1 derived macrophages. Niclosamide, CCCP and BAM15 inhibited LPS plus ATP-induced increase of NFκB (P65) phosphorylation, and inhibited NFκB (P65) nuclear translocation in RAW264.7 macrophages. Niclosamide and BAM15 inhibited LPS-induced increase of IκBα phosphorylation in RAW264.7 macrophages, and the inhibitory effect was dependent on increased intracellular [Ca2+] i ; however, CCCP showed no significant effect on IκBα phosphorylation in RAW264.7 macrophages stimulated with LPS. In conclusion, chemical mitochondrial uncouplers niclosamide, CCCP and BAM15 share common inhibitory effect on NLRP3 inflammasome activation through inhibiting NFκB nuclear translocation. Unlabelled Image • Niclosamide, CCCP and BAM15 inhibit NLRP3 and IL-1β expressions in macrophages. • Niclosamide, CCCP and BAM15 inhibit NFκB nuclear translocation in macrophages. • Niclosamide and BAM15 but not CCCP inhibits LPS-induced IκBα phosphorylation. • Mitochondrial uncouplers are novel type of NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitors.
