Animal Models of Inflammasomopathies Reveal Roles for Innate but not Adaptive Immunity

Cryopyrin (NALP3) mediates formation of the inflammasome, a protein complex responsible for cleavage of pro-IL-1β to its active form. Mutations in the cryopyrin gene, NLRP3, cause the autoinflammatory disease spectrum: cryopyrin-associated periodic syndromes (CAPS). The central role of IL-1β in CAPS...
