ABSTRACT

The NLRP3 inflammasome is a critical multiprotein signaling platform that activates caspase-1, leading to the maturation of pro-inflammatory cytokines interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and IL-18, and triggering inflammatory responses. Inflammation has been implicated as a significant process in cardiovascular diseases. The activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome is associated with the pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases, including hypertension, atherosclerosis, and heart failure. This article provides an overview of the role, mechanisms, and potential therapeutic interventions related to the activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome in the occurrence and development of cardiovascular-related diseases. 

KEYWORDS
