Liu et al. analyzed the inflammasome activity of nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor family pyrin domain-containing 3 (NLRP3) by Western blot, and found that pterostilbene treatment decreased the activation of NLRP3 inflammasome, suggesting that pterostilbene may reduce early brain injury after subarachnoid hemorrhage by inhibiting NLRP3 inflammatory bodies [68]. Here, NLRP3 is linked to subarachnoid hemorrhage.
