Structure and assembly of a bacterial gasdermin pore.
Nature, 2023 AbstractIn response to pathogen infection, gasdermin (GSDM) proteins form membrane pores that induce a host cell death process called pyroptosis1–3. Studies of human and mouse GSDM pores reveal the functions and architectures of 24–33 protomers assemblies4–9, but the mechanism and evolutionary origin of membrane targeting and GSDM pore formation remain

Pyroptosis, inflammasome, and gasdermins in tumor immunity
Innate Immunity, 2023 The gasdermins (GSDM), a family of pore-forming proteins, consist of gasdermin A (GSDMA), gasdermin B (GSDMB), gasdermin C (GSDMC), gasdermin D (GSDMD), gasdermin E (GSDME) and DFNB59 (Pejvakin (PJVK)) in humans.

The gasdermin family: emerging therapeutic targets in diseases
Signal Transduction and Targeted TherapyThe 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 ...

Acta Pharmaceutica Sinica B, 2021 Pyroptosis is the process of inflammatory cell death. The primary function of pyroptosis is to induce strong inflammatory responses that defend the host against microbe infection. Excessive pyroptosis, however, leads to several inflammatory diseases, including sepsis and autoimmune disorders. Pyroptosis can be canonical or noncanonical.

Frontiers in Immunology, 2023 Sepsis is a hyper-heterogeneous syndrome in which the systemic inflammatory response persists throughout the course of the disease and the inflammatory and immune responses are dynamically altered at different pathogenic stages. Gasdermins (GSDMs) proteins are pore-forming executors in the membrane, subsequently mediating the release of pro ...

Mechanism of gasdermin D recognition by inflammatory caspases and their inhibition by a gasdermin D-derived peptide inhibitor [PDF]
Acta Crystallographica Section A Foundations and Advances, 2018 Significance The inflammasomes are signaling platforms that promote the activation of inflammatory caspases such as caspases-1, -4, -5, and -11, which cleave gasdermin D (GSDMD) to induce pyroptotic cell death. The mechanisms of GSDMD recognition by inflammatory caspases remain poorly understood.

Gasdermin D and Beyond – Gasdermin-mediated Pyroptosis in Bacterial Infections
Journal of Molecular Biology, 2022 The discovery of pyroptosis and its subsequent implications in infection and immunity has uncovered a new angle of host-defence against pathogen assault. At its most simple, gasdermin-mediated pyroptosis in bacterial infection would be expected to remove pathogens from the relative safety of the cytosol or pathogen containing vacuole/phagosome whilst ...
