Monitoring NLRP3 Inflammasome Activation and Exhaustion in Clinical Samples: A Refined Flow Cytometry Protocol for ASC Speck Formation Measurement Directly in Whole Blood after Ex Vivo Stimulation
Alteration of NLRP3 inflammasome pathway including hyper-activation or exhaustion has been implicated in the pathophysiology of many diseases. Following cell stimulation, aggregation of the ASC protein into a multiprotein complex, the ASC speck, has been proposed as a specific read-out for monitorin...
