The treatment of injury from volumetric muscle loss with Maresin 1 reduces inflammation and fibrosis, driving improvements in the recovery of muscle strength.
Computational analyses and biochemical measurements redefine the mechanisms by which pyrin-only-proteins specifically target and regulate the assembly of inflammasomes.

Caspase-11 catalytic activity and autoprocessing play key roles upstream rather than downstream of its assembly into higher-order inflammasome complexes in response to cytosolic bacterial lipopolysaccharide.
Comparing the white-footed deermouse with mice and rats in an inflammation model reveals a means for the observed infection tolerance in this key animal reservoir for several human diseases.
