AIM2 — CASP8
Text-mined interactions from Literome
Lenert et al., Clin Exp Immunol 2010
(Lupus Erythematosus, Systemic) :
Interestingly,
AIM2 is not capable of inducing type I IFN, but rather
plays a role in
caspase I activation
Jones et al., Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 2010
(Tularemia) :
IFN-I did, however, boost
AIM2 dependent
caspase-1 activation by increasing AIM2 protein levels
Wu et al., J Clin Immunol 2010
(Listeriosis) :
Here, we have used macrophages from AIM2-, NLRC4-, NLRP3-, and ASC-deficient mice to demonstrate that
AIM2 , NLRC4, and NLRP3 inflammasomes as well as the adaptor protein ASC all
contribute to activation of
caspase-1 in Listeria infected macrophages
Pierini et al., Cell Death Differ 2012
(Tularemia) :
The adaptor molecule ASC mediates
AIM2 dependent
caspase-1 activation
Saiga et al., Int Immunol 2012
(Tuberculosis, Pulmonary) :
Genomic DNA extracted from M. tuberculosis ( Mtb DNA ) induced
caspase-1 activation and IL-1ß/IL-18 secretion in an
AIM2 dependent manner
Ulland et al., Infect Immun 2013
(Tularemia) :
Activation of the
AIM2 inflammasome
results in autocatalytic cleavage of
caspase-1 , resulting in the processing and secretion of interleukin-1ß (IL-1ß) and IL-18, which play a crucial role in innate immune responses to F. tularensis
Dotson et al., J Biol Chem 2013
(Tularemia) :
An enhanced activation of
caspase-1 and IL-1ß observed in FTL_0325 mutant infected macrophages at 24 h post-infection was
independent of both
AIM2 and NLRP3
