| dc.description.abstract | The Nod-Like Receptor (NLR) family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome plays a role in regulating inflammatory signaling and is a well-established contributor to pyroptotic cell death. It has been investigated extensively in cancer but there remains limited evidence of its role within ovarian cancer (OC). Bioinformatic investigation of gene expression data has highlighted that higher expression of NLRP3 and genes associated with the NLRP3 complex appear to be positively correlated with OC and may also have prognostic significance. However, heterogeneity exists within the results and experimental data is limited and contradictory. If the NLRP3 inflammasome is to be exploited as a therapeutic target, further laboratory-based investigation is required to determine its role in cancer. Furthermore, its relationship with clinically important characteristics such as histopathological subtype may be of key significance in developing targeted therapies towards specific cohorts of patients. | |
