Engineering a 660 nm‐Responsive Optogenetic Inducer of Pyroptosis for Precision Cancer Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reports a bioorthogonal pyroptosis inducer, PyroRACS. By using a red‐light‐responsive Cre‐On genetic switch to control the expression of highly cytotoxic GSDMDNT, PyroRACS enables the artificial induction of pyroptosis with precise spatiotemporal control.

Molecular Engineering Boosts Photon‐Activated Immunotherapy for Prostate Cancer Through Concurrent Pyroptosis and cGAS‐STING Pathway Activation

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
The engineered DTSe‐based photosensitizer, DZTSe, emerges as an avant‐garde molecular entity, which can distribute to both the endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria to concurrently trigger pyroptosis and activate the cGAS‐STING pathway. This dual‐action strategy effectively reprograms the tumor microenvironment, enabling potent eradication of primary ...

The gasdermin family: emerging therapeutic targets in diseases

Signal Transduction and Targeted Therapy
The gasdermin (GSDM) family has garnered significant attention for its pivotal role in immunity and disease as a key player in pyroptosis. This recently characterized class of pore-forming effector proteins is pivotal in orchestrating processes such as ...

A High‐Loading Zn Single‐Atom Nanozyme Targets the Zn/HIF‐1α/GLUT1 Axis to Disrupt Glucose Metabolic Reprogramming and Remodel the Tumor Immune Microenvironment

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A high‐loading Zn single‐atom nanozyme (ZMG@CS) delivers ML‐SA5 and GOx to lysosomes. ML‐SA5 activates TRPML1 to release endogenous Zn2+, while the nanozyme provides exogenous Zn2+ and GOx‐driven acidification amplifies ROS production. Together, these effects suppress the HIF‐1α/GLUT1 axis, disrupt glucose and redox homeostasis, induce disulfidptosis ...

ALDH Inhibition‐Primed Photocatalysis Disrupts Cancer Stemness Plasticity

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
DE‐Et converts ALDH‐mediated redox buffering into a photoredox vulnerability by coupling ALDH inhibition with red‐light‐driven catalytic NADH oxidation. This enzyme‐coupled photoredox strategy sustains mitochondrial NADH/NAD+ imbalance, induces pyroptotic tumor cell death, suppresses tumor growth in vivo, and promotes systemic antitumor immunity ...

Zebrafish in Inflammasome Research

Cells, 2019
Inflammasomes are cytosolic multiprotein complexes that regulate inflammatory responses to danger stimuli and infection, and their dysregulation is associated with an increasing number of autoinflammatory diseases.

Succination inactivates gasdermin D and blocks pyroptosis

Science, 2020
Fumarate targets pyroptosis A form of inflammatory cell death called pyroptosis depends on the caspase-mediated cleavage of gasdermin D (GSDMD), the fragments of which assemble into permeability pores that then kill the cell.

Lanthanum Carbonate Nanosheets Based Colloidal Hydrogel for Modulating Innate & Adaptive Tumor Immunotherapy by Augmented Cellular Pyroptosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The Gela/decitabine/La2(CO3)3 colloidal (GDLC) hydrogel developed here could reverse the epigenetic silencing of the GSDME gene by the synergistic interaction between DAC and La3+, while concurrently activating caspase‐3, thus facilitating pyroptosis induction under the tumor microenvironment.

Stress Hyperglycemia Drives CD4+ T Cell PANoptosis and Postoperative Organ Injury via Monocyte‐Derived Succinate

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
High glucose is linked to reduced succinate dehydrogenase activity in CD14+ monocytes, accompanied by succinate accumulation and extracellular release. Extracellular succinate exacerbates mitochondrial ROS production and mtDNA release in CD4+ T cells. Cytosolic mtDNA then activates Z‐DNA binding protein 1 (ZBP1) and engages ZBP1‐associated inflammatory
