Introduction Caspase-1 is a pro-inflammatory enzyme which gets activated by autoprocessing following the assembly of multiprotein complexes called inflammasomes. Mature caspase-1 is responsible for the activation of the proinflammatory cytokines interleukin (IL)-1b and IL-18. Luksch and colleagues reported naturally occurring CASP1 genetic variants in patients suffering from unexplained recurre...
