"Given the effect of curcumin on the expression of NLRP3 inflammasome and regulation of TLR4/MyD88/NF-kappaB and P2X7R, we concluded that curcumin reduced NLRP3 inflammasome, cleaved caspase-1 induction, and consequently reduced IL-1beta secretion through TLR4/MyD88/NF-kappaB and P2X7R pathways in PMA induced macrophages; the schematic model is shown in Figure XREF_FIG."

"Curcumin suppressed the upregulation of NLRP3, caspase-1, pro-IL-1beta and IL-1beta proteins (XREF_FIG), the increased ratio of caspase-1 to procaspase-1 and IL-1beta to pro-IL-1beta (XREF_FIG), as well as the enhanced caspase-1 activity (XREF_SUPPLEMENTARY), but had no significant effect on procaspase-1 expression (XREF_FIG) in SHR derived VSMCs."

"This is because curcumin has been shown to reduce NLRP3 inflammasome activation and IL-1beta production in lipopolysaccharide induced septic shock [XREF_BIBR], and both IL-1beta (a proinflammatory cytokine) and NLRP3 inflammasomes have been shown to be involved in the development of DN [XREF_BIBR, XREF_BIBR]."

"Since inflammation is one of the important pathological mechanisms of hypoxia injury, curcumin may inhibit the activation of caspase-1 by inhibiting NLRP3 inflammasome, thereby reducing the maturation and release of IL-1, reducing the proliferation of inflammation-induced PASMCs, improving the remodeling of blood vessels, and ultimately reducing pulmonary artery pressure in PHA rats."
