Cytokine release inhibitory drug (CRID3) inhibits Caspase-1 and IL-1β protein expression. SH-APP cells were co-cultured with CHME5 microglia cell line (microglia: neuron ratio of 1:2) in the presence of CRID3 (25–100 nM) for 48 h. Cells were harvested and the cell pellet was used in western blot for Caspase-1 (A) and IL-1β (B) protein expression analysis. Relative protein expression was calculated using ImageJ and a significant inhibition was observed for Caspase-1 (C) and IL-1β (D) protein expression at 100 nM CRID3 concentration compared to the water-treated control cells (n = 3) (∗∗p ≤ 0.01; ∗∗∗p ≤ 0.001).
