【 摘 要 】
Members of the nucleotide binding and oligomerization domain-like receptors (NLRs) and the PYD and CARD domain containing adaptor protein (PYCARD) assemble into multi-protein platforms, termed inflammasomes, to mediate in the activation of caspase-1 and the subsequent secretion of IL-1β and IL-18, and the induction of pyroptotic cell death. While the recognition site for caspase-1 is well conserved in mammals, most of the non-mammalian IL-1β genes cloned so far lack this conserved site. We report here that stimulation or infection of seabream macrophages (MØ) led to the caspase-1-independent processing and release of IL-1β. In addition, several classical activators of the NLRP3 inflammasome failed to activate caspase-1 and to induce the processing and release of IL-1β. Furthermore, the processing of IL-1β in seabream MØ is not prevented by caspase-1 or pan-caspase inhibitors, and recombinant seabream caspase-1 failed to process IL-1β. However, the pharmacological inhibition of caspase-1 impaired Salmonell...
