摘要
NLRP3炎症小体是模式识别受体的一种,可通过活化含半胱氨酸的天冬氨酸蛋白酶调控白细胞介素-1β、-18等炎症因子的成熟和分泌,引发炎症反应。近年研究发现,在慢性高糖状态下葡萄糖、游离脂肪酸、尿酸等代谢应激均可激活NLRP3炎症小体,成为糖尿病及慢性并发症的新靶标。本文总结了NLRP3炎症小体与糖尿病慢性并发症的关系及中药干预作用的研究进展。
NLRP3 inflammasome is a pattern recognition receptor that regulates the maturation and secretion of proinflammatory cytokines including interleukin(IL)-1β and IL-18 by activating the cysteine-containing aspartic acid protease and thus induces inflammatory response.Mtabolic stress including hyperglycemia,high blood free fatty acids,and hyperuricemia can activate NLRP3 inflammasome.Thus,NLRP3 inflammasome has became a new target in the treatment of diabetes and its chronic complications.This article reviews the relationship between NLRP3 inflammasome and chronic complications of diabetes and the therapeutic effects of Chinese herbal medicine.
