Abstract

Abstract

Autoimmune hepatitis （AIH） is chronic hepatitis caused by the attack of live cells by the immune system， and at present， the pathogenesis of AIH remains unclear. Inflammasomes are important components of innate immunity and are involved in a variety of pathophysiological processes. Studies have shown that inflammatory response associated with nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor protein 3 （NLRP3） plays an important role in the pathogenesis of AIH， which mainly mediates the release of proinflammatory factors and pyroptosis， thereby participating in the pathophysiological process of AIH. Therefore， the development and progression of AIH can be delayed by inhibiting the activation of NLRP3 inflammasomes， which provides new ideas for the prevention and treatment of AIH.
