Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: Previous studies have reported the involvement of nucleotide-binding domain (NOD)-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome in the inflammatory activation and pathophysiology of Ischemic Stroke (IS). Variations in genes encoding the constituent proteins of NLRP3 inflammasome can alter the risk of IS. OBJECTIVE: We investigated the role of the NLRP3 inflammasome in the pathogenesis of IS by...
