NIMA-related kinase 7 amplifies NLRP3 inflammasome pro-inflammatory signaling in microglia/macrophages and mice models of spinal cord injury

NIMA-related kinase-7 (NEK7) is a serine/threonine kinase that drives cell-cycle dynamics by modulating mitotic spindle formation and cytokinesis. It is also a crucial modulator of the pro-inflammatory effects of NOD-like receptor 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome. However, the role of NEK7 in microglia/macrophages post-spinal cord injury (SCI) is not well defined.
