Interaction between the inflammasome and commensal microorganisms in gastrointestinal health and disease

EMBO Molecular Medicine, 2021
The inflammasome is a cytosolic multiprotein complex that plays a crucial role in inflammation and cell death. The sensor proteins in the inflammasome complex detect various microbial and endogenous stimuli, leading to subsequent caspase activation.
