ZYIL1 is a nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain, leucine rich repeat and pyrin domain-containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome inhibitor, which prevents NLRP3-induced apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a caspase activation and recruitment domain oligomerization, thus inhibiting NLRP3 inflammasome pathway.

The subjects aged 18-55 years were enrolled in 2 different studies: single and multiple ascending dose.
