ALA inhibited NETs-induced pyroptosis of macrophages in vitro. The bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) were pretreated with different concentrations of ALA (0, 50, 100, 250, 500 nM/ml), then incubated with NETs for 24 h. (A–D) Immunoblot analysis of pyroptosis-related proteins (Cl-caspase-1, Cl-GSDMD, ASC) expression in BMDMs; (E) Level of IL-1β in cell supernatant was determined by ELISA; (F, G) Immunofluorescence assay for cell death in BMDMs after treatment with NETs (6 μg/ml, 24h); (H, I) Images are representative of three independent experiments. Data were represented as mean ± S.D. (n = 3). *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P<0.001, **** P < 0.0001.
