physiological function | in response to corneal infection with Aspergillus fumigatus, caspase-11-/- mice exhibit the same susceptibility phenotype as IL-1beta-/-, ASC-/-, NLRP3-7-, and caspase-1-/- mice, with impaired neutrophil recruitment to infected corneas and increased hyphal growth. Caspase-11 is required for caspase-1 activation and IL-1eta processing during infection. In vitro, caspase-11 is regulated by the common type I IFN receptor (IFNAR) through JAK-STAT signaling and caspase-11 is required for speck formation and caspase-1 activity | Mus musculus |
