Abstract: NLRP3,belonging to one of the inflammasomes,can be activated by pathogens of various diseases or danger signals and hence plays an important role in the onset and development of various diseases including diabetes. Inhibition of NLRP3 inflammasome expression has since turned to be a hot topic for medicinal research in the world. The inhibiting substances of the NLRP3 inflammasome can be found via either synthetic or natural method. The research progress in natural inhibition of the NLRP3 inflammasome were reviewed from some databases such as CNKI,Pubmed,etc. More than 20 compounds were found to inhibit the NLRP2 inflammasome,of which flavonoids,terpenoids,and alkaloids were described. This review might provide scientific evidence for developing new drugs in the future.
