NLRP3 is a thermosensor that is negatively regulated by high temperature

Wei Wang, Damien Bertheloot, Junya Zhang, Marcia A. Munoz, Shangze Xu, Amelia Stennett, Chloe M. McKee, Ryan Knight, Emma C. McKay, Bernardo S. Franklin, Michael J. Rogers, Agnieszka K. Bronowska, Rebecca C. Coll

This study shows high temperatures inhibit NLRP3 inflammasome activation, identifying NLRP3 as a thermosensor and revealing a temperature-sensitive conformational change in its C-terminal domain.

Corticospinal excitability is facilitated during coordinative action observation and motor imagery of adapted single-leg sit-to-stand movements in young healthy adults

Ashika Chembila Valappil, Neža Grilc, Federico Castelli, Samantha Chye, David James Wright, Christopher J. Tyler, Ryan Knight, Omar S. Mian, Neale Anthony Tillin, Adam Mark Bruton

This study shows that combined action observation and motor imagery (AOMI) increases corticospinal excitability during specific single-leg sit-to-stand movements in healthy adults.
