  1. Abstract:

    Rationale: Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a heterogeneous syndrome with a mortality of up to 40%. Precision medicine approaches targeting patients on the basis of their molecular phenotypes of ARDS might help to identify effective pharmacotherapies. The inflammasome-caspase-1 pathway contributes to the development of ARDS via IL-1 beta and IL-18 production. Recent studies indicate that tetracycline can be used to treat inflammatory diseases mediated by IL-1 beta and IL-18, although the molecular mechanism by which tetracycline inhibits inflammasome-caspase-1 signaling remains unknown.
