| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to isolate a MyD88/Trif independent NLRP3 activator from Vibrio cholerae O1 and clarified the signaling passway . We usedseveral factors of V.cholerae for the purpose, and we found that the hemolysin (HlyA) is most possible factor in V. cholerae. We also found that other bacterial hemolysins did not show same phenomenon. However, we could not obtain the certificate evidences.
