NLRP3 and beyond: inflammasomes as central cellular hub and emerging therapeutic target in inflammation and disease Open
The NLRP3 inflammasome is a key cytosolic sensor in the innate immune system, activated by diverse danger signals such as metabolic stress, infections, and structural cellular disruptions. Its activation leads to the maturation of IL-1β an…
