Innate immune cells respond to pathogens and other danger signals with inflammasome formation and conversion of procaspase-1 zymogen into catalytically active caspase-1. Caspase-1 activation results in the processing and release of cytokines IL-1β and IL-18, as well as pyroptosis, an immunogenic form of cell death. The Caspase-Glo® 1 Assay is sensitive enough to measure caspase-1 activity directly in cells or in medium in multiwell plates.\u003cbr\u003e\nThis peer-reviewed paper \"A bioluminescent caspase-1 activity assay rapidly monitors inflammasome activation in cells\" shows how the Caspase-Glo® 1 Assay can specifically detect caspase-1 activity in cells treated with inflammasome inducers, confirm one-signal and two-signal inflammasome activation mechanisms, and monitor caspase-1 activity, cell death, and IL-1β release from the same microplate well.\u003cbr\u003e\nThis peer-reviewed study \"Interrogating direct NLRP3 engagement and functional inflammasome inhibition using cellular assays\" examines the direct engagement and functionality of NLRP3 pathway activity in cells using several mechanistic assays, including the\u003cbr\u003e\nLumit® IL-1β Immunoassay\u003cbr\u003e\nand Caspase-Glo® 1 Inflammasome Assay.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Promega","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46835638075561,"sku":"G9952","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/promega-g9952","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
