Abstract

Sepsis is a systemic inflammatory response syndrome that is caused by infection. It is one of the most common critical diseases clinically. Although more anti-inflammatory drugs are available, the treatment options for sepsis remain limited. The nucleotide-binding domain-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome is a multiprotein complex that has been implicated in the development and evolution of sepsis and other autoimmune inflammatory diseases. Although the activation pathway and biological function of NLRP3 in sepsis are becoming clear, the treatment of sepsis by regulating NLRP3 is being explored. This article will review the status of various NLRP3 modulators that might improve the symptoms of sepsis to provide a basis for further research into the treatment of sepsis.
