Abstract Inflammasomes are important modulators of inflammation. Dysregulation inflammasomes can enhance vulnerability to conditions such as neurodegenerative diseases, autoinflammatory and metabolic disorders. Among various inflammasomes, Nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain leucine-rich repeat pyrin domain-containing protein 3 (NLRP3) is the best-characterized inflammasome related inflammatory diseases. NLRP3 an intracellular sensor that recognizes pathogen-associated molecular patterns damage-associated resulting in assembly activation inflammasome. The includes NLRP3, adaptor apoptosis-associated speck-like (ASC), effector cysteine protease procaspase-1 plays imperative role caspase-1 stimulation which further initiates a secondary response.
