Viruses act as inducers and have different effects on individual inflammasomes. For example, the NLRP1 inflammasome is activated by the Herpesviridae family virus, the Togaviridae family virus, and the Picornaviridae family virus; for the NLRP3 inflammasome, the invasion of the Paramyxairidae family virus, the Flaviviridae family virus, the Coronaviridae family virus, the Picornaviridae family virus, and the Herpesviridae family virus is the cause of activation, whereas the AIM2 inflammasome is activated by the Herpesviridae family virus, the Flaviridae family virus, and the Picornaviridae family virus. The activation of the inflammasome then triggers the pyroptosis.
