| additional information | caspase-11 is activated by a cytosolic sensing mechanism that detects bacterial-derived signals delivered into the host cytosol through the type IV secretion apparatus. Caspase-11 activation by Legionella pneumophila has distinct kinetic and molecular parameters, overview. Caspase-11 activation requires upstream protein(s) capable of sensing a microbial or endogenous danger signal. Caspase-11 requires type I IFN production mediated by TRIF-dependent TLR signaling. And caspase-1 is dispensable for caspase-11-dependent pyroptosis induced by Legionella pneumophila | Mus musculus |

| physiological function | caspase-11 stimulates rapid flagellin-independent pyroptosis in response to Legionella pneumophila. NLRP3 and ASC are both required for caspase-1 activation through the caspase-11-dependent pathway induced by Legionella pneumophila, caspase-11 is required for NAIP/NLRC4-independent pyroptosis Induced by Legionella pneumophila | Mus musculus |
