Cholesterol crystals use complement to increase NLRP3 signaling pathways in coronary and carotid atherosclerosis

BACKGROUND: During atherogenesis, cholesterol precipitates into cholesterol crystals (CC) in the vessel wall, which trigger plaque inflammation by activating the NACHT, LRR and PYD domains-containing protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome. We investigated the relationship between CC, complement and NLRP3 in...
