NLRP3 inflammasome-related microglial pyroptosis in EcoHIV infected mice

Hailong Li, Charles F. Mactutus, Diego Altomare…·Rosemarie M. Booze

This study investigates the role of NLRP3 inflammasome and microglial pyroptosis in EcoHIV-infected mice, showing increased NLRP3 and GSDMD expression and reduced markers with MCC950 treatment.

Suppression of HIV and cocaine-induced neurotoxicity and inflammation by cell penetrable itaconate esters

B. Celia Cui, Marina V Aksenova, Aliaksandra Sikirzhytskaya…·Michael S. Shtutman

This paper shows that 4-octyl-itaconate reduces HIV and cocaine-induced neurotoxicity and inflammation by modulating microglial activity and anti-inflammatory pathways.
