Evidence for interaction of the NLRP3 inflammasome and Bruton’s tyrosine kinase in tumor-associated macrophages: implications for myeloid cell production of interleukin-1beta
An inflammatory microenvironment has been shown to play an important role in the growth and metastasis of tumors. The NLRP3 inflammasome is a multi-protein complex of the innate immune system that is responsible for the production of the potent inflammatory cytokine IL-1β. Tumor- associated macropha...
