UA activates the inflammatory response of tissue-intrinsic cells indirectly affecting immune cells MSU crystals activate the TLR4/NF-B/NLRP3 signaling pathway in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs), leading to the secretion of intercellular cell adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), IL-1, IL-6, and vascular cellular adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1)
This approach could be extended to all genes harboring common mutations and to mutations that are harbored by either NDDs or cancer
