Activation and Regulation of the NLRP3 Inflammasome (InflammAct)

Date du début: 1 juil. 2014, Date de fin: 30 juin 2019,

The innate immune system protects the host from infections, detects and repairs tissue damage and functions to maintain tissue homeostasis. Several families of signaling receptors can recognize microbial substances or altered host molecules and orchestrate a coordinated inflammatory response. Inflammasomes are signaling platforms that control proteolytic activation of highly proinflammatory cytoki ...
