Allergen-induced NLRP3/caspase1/IL-18 signaling initiate eosinophilic esophagitis and respective inhibitors protect disease pathogenesis
Abstract The current report describes a stepwise mechanistic pathway of NLRP3/caspase1/IL-18-regulated immune responses operational in eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). We show that esophageal epithelial cells and macrophage-derived NLRP3 regulated IL-18 initiate the disease and induced IL-5 facilitat...
