"We report here that acute ethanol administration can override the effects of chronic ethanol and inhibit NLRP3 inflammasome activation (XREF_FIG), helping to explain why alcoholics who have a background of chronic inflammatory symptoms still experience transient immunosuppression after binge drinking."
reach
"Some evidence on the conflicting effects of ethanol on NLRP3 inflammasome activation has been presented : Ethanol markedly attenuated activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome in response to diverse danger signals, including ATP and nigericin, in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-primed macrophages."
reach
"We show that ethanol can specifically inhibit activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome, resulting in attenuated IL-1beta and caspase-1 cleavage and secretion, as well as diminished ASC speck formation, without affecting potassium efflux, in a mouse macrophage cell line (J774), mouse bone marrow derived dendritic cells, mouse neutrophils, and human PBMCs."
reach
"The NLRP3 inflammasome, a multi protein intracellular pattern recognition receptor complex that facilitates the cleavage and secretion of the pro inflammatory cytokines IL-1beta and IL-18, can be inhibited by ethanol and we sought to better understand the mechanism through which this occurs and whether chemically similar molecules exert comparable effects."
