| physiological function | the Classical biotype of Vibrio cholerae triggers caspase-11-dependent non-canonical inflammasome activation in macrophages following CT-mediated cytosolic delivery of LPS. In contrast to the Classical biotype, El Tor Vibrio cholerae induces IL-1beta maturation and secretion in a caspase-11- and CT-independent manner, overview. El Tor Vibrio cholerae (N16961 strain, originally isolated from a cholera patient in Bangladesh) engages the canonical Nlrp3 inflammasome for IL-1b secretion through its accessory hlyA toxin. Vibrio cholerae El Tor biotype does not trigger caspase-11 activation, but instead triggers parallel Nlrp3- and pyrin-dependent pathways toward canonical inflammasome activation to induce IL-1beta-mediated inflammatory responses | Mus musculus |
