英文摘要Wilson's disease (WD) is an inherited disorder characterized by excessive accumulation of copper in the body, particularly in the liver and brain. In the central nervous system (CNS), extracellular copper accumulation triggers pathological microglial activation and subsequent neurotoxicity. Growing evidence suggests that levels of inflammatory cytokines are elevated in the brain of murine WD models. However, the mechanisms associated with copper deposition to neuroinflammation have not been completely elucidated. In this study, we investigated how the activation of NLR family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome contributes to copper-mediated neuroinflammation in an animal model of WD. Elevated levels of interleukin-1 beta, interleukin-18, interleukin-6, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha were observed in the sera of WD patients and toxic milk (TX) mice. The protein levels of inflammasome adaptor molecule apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a C-terminal caspase recruitment domain (ASC), cleaved caspase-1, and interleukin-1 beta were upregulated in the brain regions of the TX mice. The NLRP3 inflammasome was activated in the TX mice brains. Furthermore, the activation of NLRP3 inflammasome was noted in primary microglia treated with CuCl2, accompanied by the increased levels of cleaved caspase-1, ASC, and interleukin-1 beta. Blocking NLRP3 inflammasome activation with siNlrp3 or MCC950 reduced interleukin-1 beta and interleukin-18 production, thereby effectively mitigating cognitive decline, locomotor behavior impairment, and neurodegeneration in TX mice. Overall, our study demonstrates the contribution of copper overload-mediated activation of NLRP3 inflammasome to progressive neuropathology in the CNS of a murine model of WD. Therefore, blockade of the NLRP3 inflammasome activation could be a potential therapeutic strategy for WD.
