CARD9 negatively regulates NLRP3-induced IL-1β production on Salmonella infection of macrophages

IL-1β is important for control of bacterial infections, but when deregulated can lead to excessive inflammation. The authors show that the adaptor protein CARD9 suppresses levels of IL-1β and is downregulated during S. Typhimuriuminfection, thus facilitating an inflammatory response
