The mitochondrial electron transport chain is necessary for NLRP3 inflammasome activation

Description:

The NLRP3 inflammasome is a multi-protein complex that drives sterile and pathogen-dependent inflammation. Activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome occurs in two steps: priming and activation. Priming occurs in response to an inflammatory stimulus, such as LPS. LPS-primed macrophages are subsequently activated by a second stimuli, most of which require K+...
