Vibrio parahaemolyticus effector proteins suppress inflammasome activation by interfering with host autophagy signaling.

Vibrio parahaemolyticus effector proteins suppress inflammasome activation by interfering with host autophagy signaling.

Bacterial pathogens utilize pore-forming toxins or sophisticated secretion systems to establish infection in hosts. Recognition of these toxins or secretion system by nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain leucine-rich repeat proteins (NLRs) triggers the assembly of inflammasomes, the multiprotei...
