Obesity-related metabolic diseases are associated with a chronic inflammatory state. Calenduloside E (CE) is a triterpene saponin from sugar beet. In mouse models, CE reduced pro-inflammatory cytokines in white adipose tissue (WAT) and decreased macrophage infiltration of WAT. And CE inhibited pyroptosis in J774A.1 cells and WAT by inhibiting the activation of the nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain, leucine-rich repeat and pyrin domain-containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome. Moreover, CE could trigger the activation of Sirtuin 2 (SIRT2), leading to a decrease in the acetylation of NLRP3, particularly at the K24 site. In addition, it has been shown that CE can reduce inflammation in adipocytes that have been induced by macrophage-conditioned medium. However, the selective SIRT2 inhibitor AGK2 hindered the beneficial effects of CE. In summary, CE has the capacity to impede NLRP3-mediated pyroptosis by triggering SIRT2 activity, thus positioning CE as a promising therapeutic avenue for combating obesity-related metabolic disorders.
