Ozone is a highly toxic air pollutant and global health concern. Mechanisms of genetic susceptibility to ozone-induced lung inflammation are not completely understood. We hypothesized Notch3 and Notch4 are important determinants of susceptibility to ozone-induced lung inflammation. Wild type (WT)...
ORGANISM(S): Mus musculus 
A microarray analysis involving whole blood samples isolated from critically ill patients in the medical intensive care unit at Brigham and Women's Hospital. Four groups of intubated subjects undergoing mechanical ventilation were recruited for the study: those with sepsis alone (Sepsis), those wit...
ORGANISM(S): Homo sapiens 
To identify genes important in fetal preparation for birth. Transcript profiling using microarray analysis was performed using lung and intestine RNA from a single animal from each of 10 litters at a given gestational age. Array experiments were performed by the Genomics CoreLab, Cambridge Comprehen...

Streptococcus (S.) pneumoniae is the most frequently isolated causative pathogen community-acquired pneumonia, a leading cause of mortality worldwide. We investigated the role of the inflammasome sensor NLRP3 and the inflammasome adapter ASC during S. pneumoniae pneumonia. Detailed analysis of the e...

Pyroptosis of pulmonary fibroblasts through NLRC4 inflammasome leads to acuterespiratory failure
Inflammasomes are multiprotein platforms of caspase-1 activation. The NLRP3 inflammasome is composed of NLRP3, ASC, and procaspase-1. This inflammasome is activated by various endogenous and exogenous stimuli, including pneumococci, and protects from a variety of microbial pathogens. In the present ...
