Bacillus cereus non-haemolytic enterotoxin activates the NLRP3 inflammasome [PDF]
, 2020 Inflammasomes are important for host defence against pathogens and homeostasis with commensal microbes. Here, we show non-haemolytic enterotoxin (NHE) from the neglected human foodborne pathogen Bacillus cereus is an activator of the NLRP3 inflammasome ...

Gasdermins: Effectors of Pyroptosis [PDF]
Trends in Cell Biology, 2017 Pyroptosis is a form of lytic programmed cell death initiated by inflammasomes, which detect cytosolic contamination or perturbation. This drives activation of caspase-1 or caspase-11/4/5, which cleave gasdermin D, separating its N-terminal pore-forming domain (PFD) from the C-terminal repressor domain (RD).

Single-Cell Genetic Mapping of Gasdermin Expression Across Immune-Mediated Inflammatory Diseases. [PDF]
FASEB JThis figure illustrates the lineage‐specific causal effects of gasdermin (GSDM) expression on the risk of eight immune‐mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs). The analysis, based on single‐cell genetic data, shows how GSDMA, GSDMB, and GSDMD affect disease risk in various immune cell types, highlighting distinct protective or risk‐enhancing roles in ...

The Versatile Gasdermin Family: Their Function and Roles in Diseases
Frontiers in Immunology, 2021 The gasdermin (GSDM) family, a novel group of structure-related proteins, consists of GSDMA, GSDMB, GSDMC, GSDMD, GSDME/DNFA5, and PVJK/GSDMF. GSDMs possess a C-terminal repressor domain, cytotoxic N-terminal domain, and flexible linker domain (except ...

Gasdermin-B promotes invasion and metastasis in breast cancer cells [PDF]
, 2014 Gasdermin B (GSDMB) belongs to the Gasdermin protein family that comprises four members (GSDMA-D). Gasdermin B expression has been detected in some tumor types such as hepatocarcinomas, gastric and cervix cancers; and its overexpression has been related ...

Unconventional protein secretion by gasdermin pores [PDF]
Seminars in Immunology, 2023 Unconventional protein secretion (UPS) allows the release of specific leaderless proteins independently of the classical endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-Golgi secretory pathway. While it remains one of the least understood mechanisms in cell biology, UPS plays an essential role in immunity as it controls the release of the IL-1 family of cytokines, which ...

Pyroptosis: shedding light on the mechanisms and links with cancers
Frontiers in Immunology, 2023 Pyroptosis, a novel form of programmed cell death (PCD) discovered after apoptosis and necrosis, is characterized by cell swelling, cytomembrane perforation and lysis, chromatin DNA fragmentation, and the release of intracellular proinflammatory contents,

Pyroptosis- What We Know and the Road Ahead! [PDF]
Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2022 Pyroptosis, a type of cell death, initiated by proinflammatory signals, is classically associated with inflammation. It was thought to occur mainly in macrophages and leukocytes during inflammatory conditions and involves the activation of caspase 1 ...
