Brief summary (registry, in English)

Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a significant cause of disability that affects approximately 16% of the world's population and is associated with chronic inflammation. Although the mechanisms of MDD have not yet been clearly elucidated, NLRP3 inflammasomes have been implicated in the pathogenesis of depression.NLRP3 inflammasome is an intracellular multiprotein complex that consists of nod-like receptor protein 3, an adaptor protein, and a procaspase-1 precursor. It is well known that a variety of danger signals, such as pathogen-associated molecular patterns and danger-associated molecular patterns can activate NLRP3 inflammasome
