Background: Gasdermin D, a molecule downstream of the nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor family pyrin domain containing inflammasome, forms the membrane pore for the secretion of interleukin (IL)-1β and IL-18, and also mediates ...

The role of the host—Neutrophil biology
Abstract Neutrophilic polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) are myeloid cells packed with lysosomal granules (hence also called granulocytes) that contain a formidable antimicrobial arsenal. They are terminally differentiated cells that play a critical role in acute and chronic inflammation, as well as in the resolution of inflammation and wound ...

P2X7 receptor-mediated TG2 externalization: a link to inflammatory arthritis? [PDF]
Transglutaminases have important roles in stabilizing extracellular protein assemblies in tissue repair processes but some reaction products can stimulate immune activation, leading to chronic inflammatory conditions or autoimmunity.

The Role of Gasdermin-D-Mediated Pyroptosis in Organ Injury and Its Therapeutic Implications
Gasdermin-D (GSDMD) belongs to the Gasdermin family (GSDM), which are pore-forming effector proteins that facilitate inflammatory cell death, also known as pyroptosis.

Inflammasomes in Host Defense and Autoimmunity [PDF]
Inflammasomes are large multi-protein complexes that control host defense and inflammation during infections with pathogens. Their clinical importance however reaches beyond infectious disease, since dysregulated inflammasome activity has also been ...

Etoposide Treatment of Cancer Cell Lines Results in Nuclear Localisation of Cleaved Gasdermin D
Objective: Overcoming resistance to apoptosis is one of the main goals of cancer treatment. Subversion of apoptosis to pyroptosis, an inflammatory cell death mediated by Gasdermin family members, was previously proposed as an alternative strategy for ...

GSDMD membrane pore formation constitutes the mechanism of pyroptotic cell death [PDF]
Pyroptosis is a lytic type of cell death that is initiated by inflammatory caspases. These caspases are activated within multi-protein inflammasome complexes that assemble in response to pathogens and endogenous danger signals.

Zinc‐containing bioactive glass (ZnBG) promotes diabetic wound healing by regulating macrophage extracellular traps (METs). Specifically, ZnBG reduces oxidative stress and inhibits the PAD4 and NLRP3/caspase‐1/GSDMD signaling pathways, thereby suppressing MET formation.
