Innate immunity provides a critical first line of defense against pathogens and homeostatic perturbations. Pattern recognition receptors detect these disruptions and initiate immune responses through multi-protein complex formation to drive inflammatory signaling and cell death pathways. Key cytosolic complexes formed...

Pathogens, tissue damage, and cellular stress are detected by innate immune sensor molecules to drive inflammatory signaling and cell death. Mutations in the sensor NLRP1 are associated with inflammatory disease, but the regulation of this sensor is not well understood. Here, we find that LPS, a TLR4 ligand and canonic...

Severe infections often cause life-threatening inflammation, multi-organ failure, and death. During infection, pathogens carry multiple pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) such as LPS, flagellin, nucleic acids, and lipoproteins which activate more than one pattern-recognition receptor (PRR). These PRRs...
