Results VTX-2337 induces NLRP3 inflammasome activation and production of IL-1β and IL-18 by THP-1 cells and PBMC Treatment of THP-1 cells with VTX-2337 induced a highly significant (p<0.001, unpaired t test), concentration-dependent increase in IL-1β and IL-18 mRNA, consistent with TLR-mediated activation of NF-ĸB ( Fig 2A and 2B ).
