Mechanistically, the current study demonstrated, for the first time, that APO, UMB, and their combination prevented the activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome signaling pathway in ACR-induced AKI by targeting NLRP3, ASC, GSDMD, IL-1β, and caspase-1, which is being investigated as a potential therapeutic approach for various inflammatory conditions, including AKI. The gene discussed is GSDMD; the disease is acute kidney injury.
