NLRP3 and pyroptosis blockers for treating inflammatory diseases The nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain, leucine-rich repeat and pyrin domain-containing protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome has emerged as a key mediator of pathological inflammation in many diseases and is an exciting drug target. Here, we review the molecular basis of NLRP3 inhibition by drug-like small molecules under development as novel therapeutics. We also summarize recent strategies to block pyroptosis as a novel approac...
