Gasdermin D cysteine residues synergistically control its palmitoylation-mediated membrane targeting and assembly [PDF]
Gasdermin D (GSDMD) executes the cell death program of pyroptosis by assembling into oligomers that permeabilize the plasma membrane. Here, by single-molecule imaging, we elucidate the yet unclear mechanism of Gasdermin D pore assembly and the role of ...

Gasdermin D: A potential mediator and prognostic marker of bladder cancer
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 D and Beyond – Gasdermin-mediated Pyroptosis in Bacterial Infections
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 ...

Gasdermin-D activation promotes NLRP3 activation and host resistance to Leishmania infection
Here, de Sá et al. show that Gasdermin-D is transiently activated in Leishmania-infected macrophages and promotes NLRP3 inflammasome activation, but not cell death.

Caspase-11-Gasdermin D-Mediated Pyroptosis Is Involved in the Pathogenesis of Atherosclerosis
Background: Pyroptosis is a form of cell death triggered by proinflammatory signals. Recent studies have reported that oxidized phospholipids function as caspase-11 agonists to induce noncanonical inflammasome activation in immune cells. As the levels of

E3 ubiquitin ligase SYVN1 is a key positive regulator for GSDMD-mediated pyroptosis
Gasdermin D (GSDMD) participates in the activation of inflammasomes and pyroptosis. Meanwhile, ubiquitination strictly regulates inflammatory responses. However, how ubiquitination regulates Gasdermin D activity is not well understood.

Autophagy May Allow a Cell to Forbear Pyroptosis When Confronted With Cytosol-Invasive Bacteria
Inflammatory caspases detect cytosol-invasive Gram-negative bacteria by monitoring for the presence of LPS in the cytosol. This should provide defense against the cytosol-invasive Burkholderia and Shigella species by lysing the infected cell via ...
