Pathogens frequently exist in an immunological balancing act with their host. Pathogens must not only replicate within a host but also transmit effectively between hosts to perpetuate their species. On the other hand, the host seeks to maintain homeostasis by clearing pathogens. The inflammasome is a multi-protein complex that can induce cell death and processes IL-1 beta and additional proinflammatory substrates. In this review we discuss the pathogen specific modulation of inflammasome activation and the role this plays in virulence and disease pathology.
