"Our studies are unique in that NLRP3 mRNA expression is decreased in LPS stimulated monocytes treated with azithromycin."

reach
"To determine if azithromycin reduces NALP3 protein at the pre-translational level, we assayed levels of its coding NLRP3 mRNA."

reach
"In vitro, azithromycin and erythromycin inhibited NLRC4 and NLRP3 inflammasomes activation."

reach
"Azithromycin decreases NALP3 mRNA stability in monocytes to limit inflammasome dependent inflammation."

reach
"Finally, there is evidence to suggest that azithromycin inhibits the activity of the NLRP3 inflammasome and the subsequent release of IL-1beta and IL-18 [259,293]."

reach
"Azithromycin decreases NLRP3 mRNA by decreasing transcript stability."

reach
"Azithromycin increases NLRP3 mRNA degradation without altering NLRP3 promoter activity."

reach
"These data further support that azithromycin decreases NLRP3 mRNA stability; however, the inability of the antibiotic to totally abrogate NLRP3 mRNA 3 ' UTR activity in response to LPS may be related to the experimental conditions used or other regulatory response elements that are not contained within the fragment tested."

reach
"In assessing the kinetics for these anti-inflammatory effects of azithromycin, the compound decreased NALP3 expression in unstimulated THP-1 cells treated with azithromycin by 4-6h and LPS modestly increased NALP3 mass by 4-8h (Figs."
