Inflammasome Test Cells

THP-1 human monocytic cells represent the most commonly used model cell line for the study of inflammasome activation as they express high levels of NLRP3, ASC and pro-caspase-1.
InvivoGen provides three engineered THP-1 cell lines as tools to determine whether a signal activates the inflammasome and in particular the NLRP3 inflammasome.
