NLRP1: a jack of all trades, or a master of one?
Abstract
Recent studies provide evidence that two chemically and mechanistically distinct signals activate the human NLRP1 inflammasome, challenging the concept that it-like other mammalian inflammasomes characterized thus far-evolved to detect and respond to a single danger-associated molecular pattern.
