The non-canonical inflammasome plays important roles in endotoxic shock and pyroptosis. Murine caspase-11, corresponding to human caspase-4, is centrally located in the non-canonical inflammasome pathway, which is directly activated by cytosolic lipopolysaccharide. It has been reported that ubiquitination strictly regulates inflammatory responses. However, the role of ubiquitination in regulating the non-canonical inflammasome is little known. In this study, we show that the E3 ubiquitin ligase, Nedd4 is an important negative regulatory component of the non-canonical inflammasome pathway. Nedd4 deficiency promoted mouse death from sepsis and cell pyroptosis, resulting from non-canonical inflammasome activation. Furthermore, Nedd4 induced the K48-linked polyubiquitination and subsequent degradation of caspase-11 through the 26S proteasome. Meanwhile, caspase-11 (or caspase-4) reciprocally regulated the level of Nedd4 protein by cleavage. Thus, Nedd4 appears to have a key role in balancing the level of non-canonical inflammasome activation in response to gram-negative bacterial infection.
