Lactic Acid Fermentation Is Required for NLRP3 Inflammasome Activation

Lactic Acid Fermentation Is Required for NLRP3 Inflammasome Activation

Activation of the Nod-like receptor 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome is important for activation of innate immune responses, but improper and excessive activation can cause inflammatory disease. We previously showed that glycolysis, a metabolic pathway that converts glucose into pyruvate, is essential for NLR...
