In recent years, some researches have shown that cholesterol crystals play an important role on atherosclerosis development. New microscopy technology confirmed that cholesterol crystals had emerged in the early atherosclerotic plaque formation, which related with early inflammatory. Cholesterol crystals induce local inflammation, and promote the formation of large lipid core; pierce the fibrous cap, leading to plaque rupture thereby promoting the atherosclerotic plaque development. During the process of impacting plaques, NLRP3 inflammasome activation plays a critical part for it. NLRP3 inflammasome is the up most explicit inflammasome, closely related to the development of non-in
