A cytomegalovirus inflammasome inhibitor reduces proinflammatory cytokine release and pyroptosis
Abstract In response to viral infection, cells can initiate programmed cell death (PCD), leading to a reduction in the release of viral progeny. Viruses have therefore evolved specific mechanisms to curb PCD. Cytomegaloviruses (CMVs) are sophisticated manipulators of cellular defenses and encode pot...
