ABSTRACT The apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a caspase recruitment domain (ASC) is crucial for inflammasome assembly and activation of several inflammasomes, including NLRP3. ASC aggregates are detected in human sera post pyroptotic cell death, but their origin remains unclear. This study aimed to develop method detect originating from NLRP3 inflammasomes. Initially, monocytes, macrophages, THP-1 reporter cells were employed validate the detection ASC/NLRP3-positive events...
Objective Adult‐onset Still disease (AOSD) is a systemic autoinflammatory disorder (AID) of unknown etiology. Genetic studies have been limited. Here, we conducted detailed genetic and inflammatory biomarker analysis large cohort with AOSD to investigate the underlying pathology identify novel targets for potential treatment. Methods We investigated cases (n = 60) rare germline somatic variants using whole exome sequencing virtual gene panels. Transcriptome profiles were by bulk RNA blood....
