Previous studies have identified NLRP3 inflammasome as a class of receptors of intracellular intrinsic immunity. These receptors can be activated by both intrinsic and extracellular danger signals, leading to the release of downstream pro-inflammatory factors, including interleukin IL-1β and IL-18. These vesicles are critical for maintaining host defense. Concurrently, researchers have identified a close relationship between the microbiome, gut-liver axis, and NLRP3 inflammasome with ALD. Consequently, the present study focus on the structure and activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome, the gut-liver axis, and intestinal microecological regulation, as well as the relationship between bile acid metabolism and the gut-liver axis. The objective of this study is to provide a foundation of knowledge and references for the development of targeted therapeutic interventions of ALD that are informed by the dynamic interplay between the NLRP3 inflammasome and the gut-liver axis.</p>","PeriodicalId":15877,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2025-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143649246","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
