Aberrant activation of Nod-like receptor family pyrin domain-containing-3 (NLRP3) inflammasome is implicated in a variety of inflammatory diseases. Targeting NLRP3 inflammasome represents a promising therapy to cure such diseases. We and others recently demonstrated that acetylation of NLRP3 promotes the inflammasome activity and also suggested lysine acetyltransferases inhibitors could be a kind of promising agents for treating NLRP3 associated disorders. In this study, by searching for kinds of lysine acetyltransferases inhibitors, we showed that SI-2 hydrochloride (SI-2), a specific inhibitor of lysine acetyltransferase KAT13B (lysine acetyltransferases 13B), specifically blocks NLRP3 inflammasome activation both in mice in vivo and in human cells ex vivo. Intriguingly, SI-2 does not affect the acetylation of NLRP3. Instead, it disrupts the interaction between NLRP3 and adaptor apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing CARD (ASC), then blocks the formation of ASC speck. Thus, our study identified a specific inhibitor for NLRP3 inflammasome and suggested SI-2 as a potential inhibitory agent for the therapy of NLRP3-driven diseases.
