Recent studies have provided evidence for the direct binding of thioredoxin-1 (TRX1) to a component of inflammasome complex NLR family pyrin domain containing 1 (NLRP-1). This interaction suggests a potential role for TRX1 in the regulation of the NLRP-1 inflammasome. Furthermore, the NLRP-3 inflammasome is known to bind TRX1 and its inhibitor, TRX-binding protein-2/TRX-interacting protein/vitamin D3 upregulated protein-1 (TBP2/TXNIP/VDUP-1). This binding forms a redox-sensitive complex, termed the "Redoxisome," as described previously. However, the specific functions of NLRP-1 within the redoxisome complex remain undefined. Antioxid.
