<p><p> Inflammasomes have a seemingly simple architecture. A sensor molecule of the NLR or PYHIN protein family recruits the common adapter molecule apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a CARD (ASC). Even so, inflammasome activation is highly regulated at multiple steps and precise det

<p>The inflammasome was first described in 2002 as a molecular complex activating proinflammatory caspases and therefore regulating the maturation and biological activities of cytokines such as IL-1ο’ and IL-18. This finding was substantiated by the identification of several mutations in the cias1 ge
