| additional information | the adaptor protein TRIF upregulates procaspase-11 expression, and this upregulation is required for caspase-11 processing and activation. Lipopolysaccharide treatment or type I IFN treatment alone does not cause caspase-11-dependent cell death | Mus musculus |
| Protein Variants | Comment | Organism |
|---|---|---|
| additional information | all Casp1-/- mice also lack caspase-11, due to the generation of the Casp1-/- line in the 129 mouse strain background, which express a mis-spliced and truncated version of the Casp11 messenger RNA | Mus musculus |

| Mus musculus | Lipopolysaccharide treatment or type I IFN treatment alone does not cause caspase-11-dependent cell death | additional information |
| Mus musculus | type I IFN signaling is sufficient to induce caspase-11 upregulation and processing. The adaptor protein TRIF upregulates procaspase-11 expression, and this upregulation is required for caspase-11 processing and activation | up |
| General Information | Comment | Organism |
|---|---|---|
| malfunction | all Casp1-/- mice also lack caspase-11, due to the generation of the Casp1-/- line in the 129 mouse strain background, which express a mis-spliced and truncated version of the Casp11 messenger RNA | Mus musculus |
| metabolism | Gram-negative bacteria and certain pore-forming toxins induce a caspase-11-dependent noncanonical inflammasome that contributes to NLRP3-dependent interleukin-1beta release and also triggers NLRP3- and caspase-1-independent cell death and interleukin-1alpha release | Mus musculus |
| physiological function | activated caspase-11 triggers cell death, caspase-11 is essential for the induction of endotoxic shock in vivo | Mus musculus |
