The data obtained (Figure 7 and Figure 8) show that M. furfur activates the inflammasome by inducing the expression of Il-1β, Caspase-1, IL-18, and NLRP-3 after 4 h of infection, while the simultaneous addition of L. plantarum totally inhibits this activation, bringing them back to the control values. Here, CASP1 is linked to infection.
