1 Similar increases in gene expression of NLRP3, apoptosis associated speck like protein (ASC) and pro-IL-1beta were induced by multiple low doses of streptozotocin (STZ) in C57BL/6 mice. Streptozocin interleukin 1 beta Mus musculus

3 Overall, our results demonstrate that mDNA-mediated NLRP3 activation triggers caspase-1-dependent IL-1beta production and contributes to pathogenic cellular responses during the development of STZ-induced T1D. Streptozocin interleukin 1 beta Mus musculus
