Pathogenic effects of inhibition of mTORC1/STAT3 axis facilitates Staphylococcus aureus-induced pyroptosis in human macrophages

Abstract Background Pyroptosis is a recently identified pathway of caspase-mediated cell death in response to microbes, lipopolysaccharide, or chemotherapy in certain types of cells. However, the mechanism of how pyroptosis is regulated is not well-established. Methods Herein, the intracellular bact...
