DPP9 is an endogenous and direct inhibitor of the NLRP1 inflammasome that guards against human auto-inflammatory diseases
2018-02-07
Abstract excerpt
The inflammasome is a critical immune complex that activates IL-1 driven inflammation in response to pathogen- and danger-associated signals. Nod-like receptor protein-1 (NLRP1) is a widely expressed inflammasome sensor.
