Lamkanfi and colleagues examine the mechanisms through which the inflammasome sensors NLRP1b and NLRC4 regulate apoptosis. The video shows primary intestinal epithelial organoids undergoing pyroptosis and apoptosis. B6Nlrp1b+, B6Nlrp1b+C1−/−C11−/−, and B6Nlrp1b+C1−/−C11−/− ASC−/− organoids were stimulated with FlaTox and followed in time for 16 hr in the presence of propidium iodide.
