Asthma is a heterogeneous inflammatory disorder of the airways, and multiple studies have addressed the vital role of the nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3)/caspase-1/interleukin-1β (IL-1β) pathway in asthma, but its impact on ovalbumin- (OVA-) induced neutrophilic asthma remains unclear. This evidence concerns the gene IL1B and asthma.
