Reconstitution of human pyroptotic cell death in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Pyroptosis is a lytic form of programmed cell death induced by the activation of gasdermins. The precise mechanism of gasdermin activation by upstream proteases remains incompletely understood.

Inflammasomes are fundamental innate immune mechanisms that promote inflammation and induce an inflammatory form of programmed cell death, pyroptosis. Pyroptotic inflammasome has been reported to be closely associated with tumorigenesis and prognosis of ...

INFLAMMASOMES AND GASDERMINS IN IMMUNE DEFENSE AND PATHOLOGY [PDF]
Pyroptosis is a form of programmed cell death that effectively defends against intracellular pathogens by lysing an infected cell, thereby removing the pathogens’ replicative niche, and by releasing danger-associated molecular patterns and the pro ...

Targeting gasdermin E in neurodegenerative diseases
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.

Partners in Crime: The Interplay of Proteins and Membranes in Regulated Necrosis [PDF]
Pyroptosis, necroptosis, and ferroptosis are well-characterized forms of regulated necrosis that have been associated with human diseases. During regulated necrosis, plasma membrane damage facilitates the movement of ions and molecules across the bilayer,

Gasdermins: New Therapeutic Targets in Host Defense, Inflammatory Diseases, and Cancer
Gasdermins (GSDMs) are a class of pore-forming proteins related to pyroptosis, a programmed cell death pathway that is induced by a range of inflammatory stimuli. Small-scale GSDM activation and pore formation allow the passive release of cytokines, such

Biological Functions of Gasdermins in Cancer: From Molecular Mechanisms to Therapeutic Potential
Pyroptosis is a type of lytic programmed cell death triggered by various inflammasomes that sense danger signals. Pyroptosis has recently attracted great attention owing to its contributory role in cancer.

About thirty years ago, a new form of pro-inflammatory lytic cell death was observed and termed pyroptosis. Only in 2015, gasdermins were defined as molecules that create pores at the plasma membrane and drive pyroptosis.
