Neutrophil P2X7 receptors mediate NLRP3 inflammasome-dependent IL-1β secretion in response to ATP

Neutrophils are a major source of IL-1 β in a number of inflammatory settings. Here the authors show that mouse and human neutrophils express functional P2X7 receptors, which mediate ATP-triggered NLRP3 inflammasome activation and IL-1 ß secretion.
