Figure Lengend Snippet: a, representation of the proteins with denaturing curves significantly altered (red) or unaltered (black) by 3,2-HPP treatment of THP1-Dual™ cells, using thermal proteome profiling (two combined experiments, proteomic coverage: 4301, NPARC test); b, protein-protein interaction network of proteins with denaturation curves altered by 3,2-HPP treatment (red) and the transcriptional regulators of 3, 2-HPP impacted genes in M3-9-M tumours (yellow); c, impact of 3,2-HPP treatment of THP1-Dual™ cells on the denaturation curve of GSDMD (two-combined experiments, NPARC test); d, NF-κB induction in THP1-Dual™ reporter cells treated with conditioned media harvested from WT or Gsdmd- KO THP1 cells treated with LPS ± HPP metabolites ± IL-1α and −1β neutralizing antibody (three combined experiments, one-way ANOVA with Bonferroni multiple comparison test); e-h, [secreted IL-1α and −1β] in conditioned media harvested from THP-1 WT or Gsdmd -KO cells, or human PBMCs, cultured for 16 hours in LPS ± HPPs (two combined experiments, one-way ANOVA with Bonferroni multiple comparison test); i-l, [secreted IL-1α and −1β] in conditioned media harvested from THP-1 WT vs. Gsdmd -KO cells, or human PBMCs, cultured for 16 hours in LPS and NG ± HPPs (two combined experiments, one-way ANOVA with Bonferroni multiple comparison test); m, western blot of THP-1 cells treated with LPS ± NG ± HPPs (representative of two experiments).

Article Snippet: To neutralize IL-1 receptor signalling, the following antibodies were used: anti-human IL-1α (1 μg/mL; clone 7D4; mabg-hil1a-3; InvivoGen), anti-human IL-1β (1 μg/mL; clone 4H5; mabg-hil1b-3; InvivoGen) and IgG1 isotype control (1 μg/mL; clone T8E5; mabg1-ctrlm; InvivoGen).
