NLRP3 mutation and cochlear autoinflammation cause syndromic and nonsyndromic hearing loss DFNA34 responsive to anakinra therapy

Abstract: The NLRP3 inflammasome is an intracellular innate immune sensor that is expressed in immune cells, including monocytes and macrophages. Activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome leads to IL-1β secretion. Gain-of-function mutations of NLRP3 result in abnormal activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome, and cause the autosomal dominant systemic autoinflammatory disease spectrum, termed cryopyrin-associated periodic syndromes (CAPS). Here, we show that a missense mutation, p.Arg918Gln (c.2753G > A), of NLRP3 causes autos… Show more

“…Overactivation of pyroptosis by pathogens can lead to widespread cell death, acute organ failure, sepsis, and septic shock [113]. Furthermore, patients carrying a gain-offunction mutation in inflammasome genes (NLRP1, NLRP3, and NLRC4) present with a wide spectrum of multi-organ inflammatory symptoms due to spontaneously increased inflammasome activation and IL-1β production [114][115][116]. Finally, inflammasome and caspase 1 activation have been implicated in myriad chronic inflammatory or autoimmune diseases, including atherosclerosis [117], MS [118,119], diabetes [120], obesity [121], AD [122], and Parkinson's disease [123], suggesting that either pharmacological or genetic inhibition of inflammasomes could significantly alleviate symptoms and reduce disease severity in experimental animals [117][118][119][120][121][122][123] or in patients [124].…”

“…A rare example of a lipid messenger is sphingosine‐1‐phosphate (S1P) or lysosphingolipid, a sphingolipid that binds to its S1PR2 receptor in the inner ear, which is necessary for hearing in human and mouse . In addition to the classic signaling molecules involved in hearing mentioned above, NLRP3 is part of the inflammosome complex and variants cause over‐production of the cytokine interleukin (IL)‐1β result in hearing loss …”
