Unique role for caspase-8 in the release of IL-1β and active caspase-1 from viable human monocytes during <i>Toxoplasma gondii</i> infection

2022-12-19

Abstract excerpt

Monocytes are among the first cells recruited to sites of infection and major producers of the potent proinflammatory cytokine IL-1β. We previously showed that IL-1β release during Toxoplasma gondii infection of primary human monocytes requires the NLRP3 inflammasome and caspase-1 activity but is independent of gasdermin D and pyroptosis. To investigate potential mechanisms of pyroptosis-independent release of IL...
