Role of inflammasomes in HIV-1 infection and treatment.
Trends in Molecular Medicine 2022 May
Although combined antiretroviral therapy (cART) is effective in inhibiting human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) replication, it does not eradicate the virus because small amounts of latent HIV-1 provirus persist in quiescent memory CD4+ T cells. Therefore, strategies for eradicating latent HIV-1 are urgently needed. Recently, several studies have reported that the inflammatory response and lymphocyte death induced by HIV-1 depend on inflammasomes and pyroptosis, suggesting that inflammasomes and pyroptosis have a vital role in HIV-1 infection and contribute to the eradication of latent HIV-1. In this review, we summarize current knowledge of the role of inflammasomes, including NLR family pyrin domain-containing protein 3 (NLRP3), caspase recruitment domain-containing protein 8 (CARD8), interferon-inducible protein 16 (IFI16), NLRP1, NLR family CARD domain-containing 4 (NLRC4), and absent in melanoma 2 (AIM2), in HIV-1 infection and discuss promising therapeutic strategies for HIV-1-associated diseases by targeting inflammasomes.
