NLRP3 and infection: Thus, to avoid translational defects induced by the formation of SGs and to examine the role of SGs in NLRP3 activation during IAV infection, we infected BMDMs with IAV/Puerto Rico/8/34 (PR8; H1N1) virus (called IAV–PR8 henceforth) and treated with Ars at later stages of infection (7 h after infection).
