BACKGROUND AIMS: Prolonged systemic inflammation contributes to poor clinical outcomes in severe alcohol-associated hepatitis (AH) even after the cessation of alcohol use. However, mechanisms leading to this persistent inflammation remain to be understood. APPROACH RESULTS: We show that while chronic alcohol induces nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor family, pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome activation in the liver, alcohol binge results not only in NLRP3 inflammasome activation but also in increased circulating extracellular apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a caspase recruitment domain (ex-ASC) specks and hepatic ASC aggregates both in patients with AH and in mouse models of AH. These ex-ASC specks persist in circulation even after the cessation of alcohol use. Administration of alcohol-induced-ex-ASC specks in vivo in alcohol-naive mice results in sustained inflammation in the liver and circulation and causes liver damage. Consistent with the key role of ex-ASC specks in mediating liver injury and inflammation, alcohol binge failed to induce liver damage or IL-1ß release in ASC-deficient mice. Our data show that alcohol induces ex-ASC specks in liver macrophages and hepatocytes, and these ex-ASC specks can trigger IL-1ß release in alcohol-naive monocytes, a process that can be prevented by the NLRP3 inhibitor, MCC950. In vivo administration of MCC950 reduced hepatic and ex-ASC specks, caspase-1 activation, IL-1ß production, and steatohepatitis in a murine model of AH. CONCLUSIONS: Our study demonstrates the central role of NLRP3 and ASC in alcohol-induced liver inflammation and unravels the critical role of ex-ASC specks in the propagation of systemic and liver inflammation in AH. Our data also identify NLRP3 as a potential therapeutic target in AH.
