Molecular characterization of a fungal gasdermin-like protein [PDF]
, 2020 Programmed cell death (PCD) in filamentous fungi prevents cytoplasmic mixing following fusion between conspecific genetically distinct individuals (allorecognition) and serves as a defense mechanism against mycoparasitism, genome exploitation, and ...

Not sorcery after all : roles of multiple charged residues in membrane insertion of gasdermin-A3 [PDF]
, 2023 Gasdermins execute programmatory cell death, known as pyroptosis, by forming medium-sized membrane pores. Recently, the molecular structure of those pores as well as the diversity in their shape and size have been revealed by cryoTEM and atomic force ...

The role of pyroptosis and its crosstalk with immune therapy in breast cancer
Frontiers in Immunology, 2022 Pyroptosis is a brand-new category of programmed cell death (PCD) that is brought on by multitudinous inflammasomes, which can recognize several stimuli to pilot the cleavage of and activate inflammatory cytokines like IL-18 and IL-1β is believed to have

Viral sensing by epithelial cells involves PKR- and caspase-3-dependent generation of gasdermin E pores [PDF]
, 2023 Viral sensing in myeloid cells involves inflammasome activation leading to gasdermin pore formation, cytokine release, and cell death. However, less is known about viral sensing in barrier epithelial cells, which are critical to the innate immune ...

Gasdermin and Its Role in Pyroptosis
, 2022 The gasdermin family (GSDMs) contains a group of uncharacterized proteins that form membrane pores and serve as a major substrate for inflammatory caspases and the execution of pyroptosis, which is recognized as a novel type of programmed cell death [1].

Caspase-5: Structure, Pro-Inflammatory Activity and Evolution
BiomoleculesCaspase-5 is a protease that induces inflammation in response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS), a component of the cell envelope of Gram-negative bacteria. The expression level of the CASP5 gene is very low in the basal state, but strongly increases in the ...

PANoptosis in the pathogenesis of myelodysplastic syndromes
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.PANoptosis, a combination of three types of programmed cell death, is mediated by a large protein complex called a PANoptosome. In healthy bone marrow hematopoietic cells, PANoptosis is restricted by inhibitory signaling. In MDS, bone marrow cells become sensitive to the PANoptotic stimuli due to the aberrant inactivation of inhibitory signaling or ...
