Overview of Gene Research
NLRC3, a member of the pattern recognition receptors nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain (NOD)-like receptors (NLRs) family, is an important regulator of innate immune system homeostasis [3,4]. It plays a pivotal role in modulating immune cell activation, and is closely associated with regulatory activity rather than pathogen recognition. NLRC3 is involved in multiple signaling pathways, such as inhibiting the NF-κB, STING/TBK1, and inflammasome-related pathways [3].
NLRC3 deficiency promotes hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension development. In hypoxia-induced mouse models, NLRC3 knockout led to increased right ventricular systolic pressure, right ventricular hypertrophy and fibrosis. In vitro and in vivo experiments demonstrated that NLRC3 deficiency promoted hypoxia-stimulated PASMCs proliferation, HUVECs apoptosis, migration and inflammation through the IKK/NF-κB p65/HIF-1α pathway, further promoting vascular remodeling and PH progression [1]. Myeloid-specific NLRC3 deletion in mice improved macrophage glycolysis and sepsis-induced immunosuppression, as NLRC3 inhibits NF-κB p65 binding to NFAT5, controlling glycolytic genes and pro-inflammatory cytokines expression of immunosuppressive macrophages [2]. Nlrc3 knockout mice infected with HTNV developed weight loss, renal hemorrhage, and tubule dilation, showing higher viral loads and more hematological and pathological changes than wild-type mice, suggesting a new model for HFRS study [5]. In Nlrc3 gene knockout mice, skin wound repair was significantly accelerated, as NLRC3 deficiency promoted the inflammatory and proliferative phases in wounds, mainly due to regulatory effects on p53 signaling [6].
In conclusion, NLRC3 is crucial in immune response regulation, especially in innate immunity. Studies using NLRC3 knockout mouse models have revealed its roles in various disease conditions, including hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension, sepsis-induced immunosuppression, HFRS, and cutaneous wound healing. These findings highlight the importance of NLRC3 in disease-related biological processes and suggest potential therapeutic targets by modulating NLRC3 expression.
