Apolipoprotein E is a Concentration-dependent Pulmonary Danger Signal that Activates the NLRP3 Inflammasome and IL-1β Secretion by Asthmatic Macrophages

Apolipoprotein E is a concentration-dependent danger signal in the lung that can prime and activate the NLRP3 inflammasome in asthmatic macrophages to secrete IL-1β. This may promote and amplify inflammation when pulmonary APOE concentrations are increased above normal levels.
