Abstract
Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate the activity of NLRP3 inflammasome and its effect on inducing severe pneumonia 1 week after influenza A virus (IAV) infection. Materials & methods: The expression levels of NLRP3, caspase-1 and IL-1β were assessed in murine macrophages stimulated with IAV. And the severity of viral pneumonia in mice was explored. Results & conclusion: The data showed that although the expression of NLRP3 diverged, activity of NLRP3 inflammasome was enhanced 1 week after IAV infection, and more severe viral pneumonia was associated with IL-1β in serum. It infers that enhanced activity of NLRP3 inflammasome induces augmented expression of IL-1β and severe pneumonia in a NLRP3-independent way, 1 week after IAV infection.
