Figure 1. The schematic diagram of a working model of CCDC50 in the regulation of NLRP3 inflammasome activation. Upon PAMPs or DAMPs stimulation, the NLRP3 inflammasome assembly is initiated to assist host cells fight against microbial infection or monitor cellular damage. In the meantime, the autophagy cargo receptor CCDC50 is induced and then CCDC50 targets K63-polyubiqutinated NLRP3 for autophagic degradation, consequently disrupting NLRP3 oligomerization and further inhibiting NLRP3 inflammasome assembly. Ubn, polyubiquitin.
