Meanwhile, in the studies of gynecological disorders and obstetrical complications, the NLRP3 inflammasome was found to be highly related to cervical cancer (CC), preterm birth, fetal growth restriction (FGR), recurrent pregnancy losses (RPL), pre-eclampsia (PE), intrauterine fetal death and neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (NHIE) (5–11). Here, NLRP3 is linked to cervical cancer.
