Nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors possess intrinsic anti-inflammatory activity
Open accessAbstract
Nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) are mainstay therapeutics for HIV that block retrovirus replication. Alu (an endogenous retroelement that also requires reverse transcriptase for its life cycle)–derived RNAs activate P2X7 and the NLRP3 inflammasome to cause cell death of the retinal pigment epithelium in geographic atrophy, a type of age-related macular degeneration. We found that NRTIs inhibit P2X7-mediated NLRP3 inflammasome activation independent of reverse transcriptase inhibition. Multiple approved and clinically relevant NRTIs prevented caspase-1 activation, the effector of the NLRP3 inflammasome, induced by Alu RNA. NRTIs were efficacious in mouse models of geographic atrophy, choroidal neovascularization, graft-versus-host disease, and sterile liver inflammation. Our findings suggest that NRTIs are ripe for drug repurposing in P2X7-driven diseases.

The ensuing IFN-I and inflammatory responses in AMD were mitigated by treatment with NRTIs.
“The ensuing IFN-I and inflammatory responses were mitigated by treatment with NRTIs95, 129.”
From The role of retrotransposable elements in ageing and age-associated diseases (2021) · cites this paper as [129]
The paper reports that NRTIs blocked Alu RNA–induced inflammasome activation, IL-18 maturation, and retinal degeneration in AMD-related models (section labeled Abstract; page unavailable). It does not report mitigation of type I interferon (IFN-I) responses in AMD. Its reported reduction in IFN-γ concerns a graft-versus-host disease model, not AMD; IFN-γ is not IFN-I. (LLM, conf=0.87)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredNRTIs possess an anti-inflammatory action that reduces NLRP3 inflammasome activation independently of reverse transcriptase engagement.
“Another possibility is the reported anti-inflammatory property of NRTIs to alleviate activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome without engaging reverse transcriptase129.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
