Article Title: Nuclear Respiratory Factor-1 Ameliorates Heart Failure by Suppressing Cardiomyocyte Pyroptosis-Associated Signaling Via the Downregulation of Gasdermin D and Caspase-1

doi: 10.14740/cr2153

Figure Lengend Snippet: NRF-1 is negatively correlated with pyroptosis in HF patients. (a) Representative images of echocardiography in HF patients and NF controls. (b–g) Serum NT-proBNP, IL-18, IL-1β, NRF-1, GSDMD and caspase-1 level in HF patients (n = 15) and NF controls (n = 10). *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001. GSDMD: gasdermin D; HF: heart failure; IL: interleukin; NF: normal cardiac function; NRF-1: nuclear respiratory factor-1; NT-proBNP: N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide.

Article Snippet: ELISA kits were used to detect N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP, EK1393, Multi Science, Hangzhou, China), NRF-1 (E15022h, EIAab, Wuhan, China), IL-18 (EK118S, Multi Science, Hangzhou, China), IL-1β (EK101B, Multi Science, Hangzhou, China), gasdermin D (GSDMD) (E15480h, EIAab, Wuhan, China), and caspase-1 (E1592h, EIAab, Wuhan, China), following the instructions of manufacturers.
