additional information Homo sapiens caspase-1 is the prototype of the inflammatory caspases and is a component of the NALP3 inflammasome, a cytosolic multiprotein complex that mediates the processing of pro-inflammatory caspases and cytokines. The inflammasome represents the first line of defense against cellular stress and is a crucial component of innate immunity. Caspase-1 plays a central role in the mechanisms leading to labor particularly in the context of intrauterine infection/inflammation. Caspase-1 is increased in the amniotic fluid of women with preterm labor in the presence of intra-amniotic infection/inflammation ?
