The tetrapeptide sequence of IL-18 and IL-1β regulates their recruitment and activation by inflammatory caspases

Summary: Inflammasomes are multiprotein signaling complexes that activate the innate immune system. Canonical inflammasomes recruit and activate caspase-1, which then cleaves and activates IL-1β and IL-18, as well as gasdermin D (GSDMD) to induce pyroptosis. In contrast, non-canonical inflammasomes,...
