Targeting gasdermin E in neurodegenerative diseases. [PDF]

open access: yesCell Rep Med, 2023
Neel et al. identified pathophysiologic clues linking gasdermin-E (GSDME) with frontotemporal dementia and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.1 Therapeutic studies targeting GSDME may provide a viable approach for neurodegenerative diseases.

Caspase-1 activates gasdermin A in non-mammals [PDF]

open access: yeseLife
Gasdermins oligomerize to form pores in the cell membrane, causing regulated lytic cell death called pyroptosis. Mammals encode five gasdermins that can trigger pyroptosis: GSDMA, B, C, D, and E.

Caspase 3 proteolytically inactivates gasdermin Ec and inhibits pyroptosis in an early vertebrate

open access: yesComparative Immunology Reports
Gasdermin represents a family of pore-forming proteins that execute programmed necrotic cell death, pyroptosis. As an ancient family member, gasdermin E (GSDME) exists ubiquitously from fish to mammals.

GSDMD and GSDME exhibit distinct roles in enteric coronavirus PDCoV-induced pyroptosis and inflammatory responses

open access: yesJournal of Virology
Porcine deltacoronavirus (PDCoV), an emerging enteric coronavirus with zoonotic potential, typically causes intestinal villous epithelial cell damage with inflammation.

Ubiquitin-independent degradation of Bim blocks macrophage pyroptosis in sepsis-related tissue injury

open access: yesCell Death and Disease
Pyroptosis, a typical inflammatory cell death mode, has been increasingly demonstrated to have therapeutic value in inflammatory diseases such as sepsis. However, the mechanisms and therapeutic targets of sepsis remain elusive.

Proinflammatory GSDMD activation in live macrophages and DLBCL cells marks cognate interactions and better prognosis

open access: yesBlood Advances
: Pyroptosis is a form of programmed cell death characterized by the cleavage of the gasdermin (GSDM) family proteins that form pores in the plasma membrane, cell rupture, and the release of proinflammatory cytokines.

Neutrophil extracellular traps and pyroptosis: a molecular nexus linking systemic autoimmune diseases to atherosclerosis

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
This review aims to elucidate the molecular mechanisms of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) and pyroptosis, exploring their synergistic role as a pathological nexus bridging systemic autoimmune diseases with atherosclerosis.

Effects of surface-exposed sialic acid and LOS outer core on the ability of native Neisseria meningitidis outer membrane vesicles (nOMVs) to induce cytokine expression and pyroptotic pathways in THP-1-derived macrophages

open access: yesScientific Reports
Native outer membrane vesicles (nOMVs) are involved in meningococcal pathogenesis and are used for vaccine production. In this study, macrophages derived from the human monocytic cell line THP-1 were exposed to nOMVs from serogroup B N.

cGAS activation converges with intracellular acidification to promote STING aggregation and pyroptosis in tumor models

open access: yesThe Journal of Clinical Investigation
The cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS)/stimulator of IFN genes (STING) pathway is intimately associated with antitumoral immunity; however, the direct involvement of this pathway in tumor cell demise remains elusive. Here, we identified a compound, dodecyl 6-

Caspase-4/11 promotes hyperlipidemia and chronic kidney disease–accelerated vascular inflammation by enhancing trained immunity

open access: yesJCI Insight
To determine whether hyperlipidemia and chronic kidney disease (CKD) have a synergy in accelerating vascular inflammation via trained immunity (TI), we performed aortic pathological analysis and RNA-Seq of high-fat diet–fed (HFD-fed) 5/6 nephrectomy CKD (
