Updated project metadata. The activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome is spatiotemporally orchestrated by various organelles, but the precise roles of lysosomes are still unclear. Here we show the vital role of the Ragulator complex, a lysosomal protein, in NLRP3 inflammasome activation. Deficiency of Lamtor1, an essential component of the Ragulator complex, abrogated NLRP3 inflammasome activation in murine macrophage and human monocytic cells. Myeloid-specific Lamtor1-deficient mice showed remarkable attenuation of the severity of NLRP3-associated inflammatory diseases, including LPS-induced sepsis, alum-induced peritonitis, and monosodium urate (MSU)-induced arthritis. Mechanistically, Lamtor1 interacted with histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) during NLRP3 inflammasome activation, and this interaction augmented the interaction between the Ragulator complex and NLRP3. Lack of HDAC6 attenuated the interaction between Lamtor1 and NLRP3, resulting in insufficient NLRP3 inflammasome activation. Furthermore, DL-all-rac-α-tocopherol inhibited Lamtor1–HDAC6 interaction, resulting in diminished NLRP3 inflammasome activation. DL-all-rac-α-tocopherol alleviated acute gouty arthritis and MSU-induced peritonitis. Our results provide insight into the role of lysosomes in providing a platform for the activation of NLRP3 inflammasomes by the Ragulator complex.
