immune system
• unlike macrophages from wild-type mice, macrophages from Pycard-deficient mice do not release significant amounts of Il-1beta when primed with LPS and treated with nigericin or maitotoxin to deplete intracellular K+ (J:106976)
• following stimulation with monosodium urate (MSU) and calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate (CPPD), IL-1-beta release from peritoneal macrophages is impaired (J:124226)
• unlike macrophages from wild-type mice, macrophages from Pycard-deficient mice do not release significant amounts of Il-18 when primed with LPS and treated with nigericin or maitotoxin to deplete intracellular K+
• macrophages from null mice show reduced or undetectable Il-1beta release and caspase-1 activation in culture when infected with Salmonella or Francisella and reduced or undetectable Il-18 release upon infection with Salmonella, S. aureus, Francisella or Listeria compared to wild-type macrophages
