Putative Therapeutic Impact of Inflammasome Inhibitors against COVID-19-Induced ARDS.

Given the importance of COVID-19-induced ARDS, recently, researchers have strived to determine underlying mechanisms involved in the inflammatory responses. In this regard, inflammasomes possess a distinct priority for cytokine storm occurrence and, subsequently, ARDS progression in ill patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection. In this minireview, the characteristics of known inflammasome inhibitors and designed research in this field were concretely deciphered.
