An Epigenetic Insight into NLRP3 Inflammasome Activation in Inflammation-Related Processes

Aberrant NLRP3 (NOD-, LRR-, and pyrin domain-containing protein 3) inflammasome activation in innate immune cells, triggered by diverse cellular danger signals, leads to the production of inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β and IL-18) and cell death by pyroptosis. These processes are involved in the patho...
