GPA peptide inhibits NLRP3 inflammasome activation to ameliorate colitis through AMPK pathway
Figure 7. Putative mechanism for the anti-inflammatory effect of GPA in macrophages. GPA increased AMPK phosphorylation to suppress ROS and mtDNA production, resulting in the blocking of NLRP3 mitochondrial translocation, which inhibited NLRP3 inflammasome activation and pyroptosis.
