Their clinical importance however reaches beyond infectious disease, since dysregulated inflammasome activity has also been linked to many auto-inflammatory disorders. This article gives a short overview on the basics of inflammasome signaling, their activation mechanisms and their role in autoimmunity. }, number={12}, journal={CHIMIA}, author={Broz, Petr}, year={2016}, month={Dec.}, pages={853} }
