Negative Feedback of the cAMP/PKA Pathway Regulates the Effects of Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress-Induced NLRP3 Inflammasome Activation on Type II Alveolar Epithelial Cell Pyroptosis as a Novel Mechanism of BLM-Induced Pulmonary Fibrosis

Endoplasmic reticulum stress (ER stress) contributes to the development of pulmonary fibrosis, especially in type II alveolar epithelial cells (AECs) apoptosis. ER stress also promotes NLRP3 inflammasome activation which is inhibited by upregulation of cAMP/PKA pathway. However, it is confused wheth...
