Role of pyroptosis in the pathogenesis and treatment of diseases

open access: yesMedComm, 2023
Programmed cell death (PCD) is regarded as a pathological form of cell death with an intracellular program mediated, which plays a pivotal role in maintaining homeostasis and embryonic development.

Pyroptosis and Sarcopenia: Frontier Perspective of Disease Mechanism

open access: yesCells, 2022
With global ageing, sarcopenia, as an age-related disease, has brought a heavy burden to individuals and society. Increasing attention has been given to further exploring the morbidity mechanism and intervention measures for sarcopenia.

Inhibiting the inflammasome with MCC950 counteracts muscle pyroptosis and improves Duchenne muscular dystrophy

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
BackgroundDuchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is the most common inherited human myopathy. Typically, the secondary process involving severe inflammation and necrosis exacerbate disease progression.

Post-phagocytosis activation of NLRP3 inflammasome by two novel T6SS effectors

open access: yeseLife, 2022
The type VI secretion system (T6SS) is used by bacteria to deliver toxic effectors directly into target cells. Most T6SSs mediate antibacterial activities, whereas the potential anti-eukaryotic role of T6SS remains understudied.

Pyroptosis: Role and Mechanisms in Cardiovascular Disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a common disease that poses a huge threat to human health. Irreversible cardiac damage due to cardiomyocyte death and lack of regenerative capacity under stressful conditions, ultimately leading to impaired cardiac ...

Gasdermin D: A potential mediator and prognostic marker of bladder cancer

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2022
Background: Bladder cancer is considered one of the commonest widespread cancers, its presentation ranges from non-muscle invasive form to being muscle-invasive. The gasdermin family of proteins consists of six proteins.

Gasdermin-B (GSDMB) takes center stage in antibacterial defense, inflammatory diseases, and cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
One of the hottest topics in biomedical research is to decipher the functional implications of the Gasdermin (GSDM) protein family in human pathologies.

Sublytic gasdermin-D pores captured in atomistic molecular simulations

open access: yeseLife, 2022
Gasdermin-D (GSDMD) is the ultimate effector of pyroptosis, a form of programmed cell death associated with pathogen invasion and inflammation. After proteolytic cleavage by caspases, the GSDMD N-terminal domain (GSDMDNT) assembles on the inner leaflet ...

Gasdermin D Restrains Type I Interferon Response to Cytosolic DNA by Disrupting Ionic Homeostasis

open access: yes, 2020
Inflammasome-activated caspase-1 cleaves gasdermin D to unmask its pore-forming activity, the predominant consequence of which is pyroptosis. Here, we report an additional biological role for gasdermin D in limiting cytosolic DNA surveillance.

The Role of Gasdermin-D-Mediated Pryoptosis in Organ Injury and Its Therapeutic Implications

open access: yes, 2023
Gasdermin-D (GSDMD) belongs to the Gasdermin family (GSDM), which are pore-forming effector proteins that facilitate inflammatory cell death, also known as pyroptosis.
