A semi‐automated ASC speck assay to evaluate pyrin inflammasome activation

Abstract Objective To develop a rapid functional assay to validate variants of uncertain significance (VUS) in the MEFV gene. Methods Overactivity of the pyrin inflammasome pathway and ASC speck oligomerisation in response to stimulation with low concentrations of Clostridium difficile toxin A was d...
