Nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain (NOD)-like receptors, also known as nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeat receptors (NLRs), are cytosolic pattern recognition receptors that detect various triggers. Activation of specific NLRs leads to signaling cascades and the formation of inflammasomes, which induce inflammatory cytokine maturation and cell death. Some NLRs and inflammasomes are part of larger cell death complexes called PANoptosomes. This review explores the evolution, structure, and function of NLRs, discussing their roles in cell death and immunity. Understanding NLRs may lead to therapeutic strategies for [infectious diseases](brain://W6…
