Keratinocytes can function as innate immune cells under oxidative stress and aggravate the cutaneous T-cell response that undermines melanocytes in the setting of vitiligo. The NOD-like receptor family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome is a regulator of innate immunity that exists in keratinocytes. However, the role of the NLRP3 inflam...
