Sensing low intracellular potassium by NLRP3 results in a stable open structure that promotes inflammasome activation
The NLRP3 inflammasome is activated by a wide range of stimuli and drives diverse inflammatory diseases. The decrease of intracellular K(+) concentration is a minimal upstream signal to most of the NLRP3 activation models. Here, we found that cellular K(+) efflux induces a stable structural change i...
