To further understand the specificity of SG-mediated inflammasome inhibition, we performed similar Ars treatment experiments in BMDMs during vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) infection, which activates the NLRP3 inflammasome, and murine cytomegalovirus (MCMV) infection, which activates the absent in melanoma 2 inflammasome (Fig. 2D). This evidence concerns the gene NLRP3 and melanoma.
