Abstract

Aging causes chronic low-grade inflammation known as inflamm-aging. It is a risk factor for several chronic disorders, including chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML), a hematological malignancy that is most prevalent in older people. Recent studies suggest a critical role for the NLRP3 (NOD-, LRR- and pyrin domain-containing protein 3) inflammasome in inflamm-aging. However, the mechanisms involved in NLRP3 activation in aging and its involvement in CMML progression are not fully understood. In this study, we report that aging increases IL-1β production upon NLRP3 activation in human CD14+ monocytes. Interestingly, we found that the TLR1/2 agonist Pam3CSK4 directly activates the NLRP3 inflammasome in monocytes from older but not from younger healthy donors. Furthermore, we observed a dichotomous response to NLRP3 inflammasome activation in monocytes from a small cohort of CMML patients, and some patients produced high levels of IL-1β and some patients produced low levels of IL-1β compared with older healthy donors. Intriguingly, CMML patients with heightened NLRP3 activation showed increased treatment dependency and disease severity. Collectively, our results suggest that aging causes increased sensitivity to NLRP3 inflammasome activation at a cellular level, which may explain increased inflammation and immune dysregulation in older individuals. Furthermore, NLRP3 inflammasome activation was dysregulated in a small cohort of CMML patients and was positively correlated with disease severity.

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.
