GSDMD-mediated pyroptosis: a critical mechanism of diabetic nephropathy [PDF]
AbstractPyroptosis is a recently identified mechanism of programmed cell death related to Caspase-1 that triggers a series of inflammatory reactions by releasing several proinflammatory factors such as IL-1β and IL-18. The process is characterised by the rupture of cell membranes and the release of cell contents through the mediation of gasdermin (GSDM)

Bacillus cereus non-haemolytic enterotoxin activates the NLRP3 inflammasome [PDF]
Inflammasomes are important for host defence against pathogens and homeostasis with commensal microbes. Here, we show non-haemolytic enterotoxin (NHE) from the neglected human foodborne pathogen Bacillus cereus is an activator of the NLRP3 inflammasome ...

GSDMD-Mediated Cardiomyocyte Pyroptosis Promotes Myocardial I/R Injury [PDF]
Rationale: Pyroptosis is a morphologically and mechanistically distinct form of cell death and is characterized by GSDMD (gasdermin D) or GSDME (gasdermin E)-mediated necrosis with excessive inflammatory factor release. Cardiomyocyte necrosis and inflammation play key roles in the pathophysiology of myocardial ischemia ...

Gasdermin D (GSDMD) functions as a key pyroptotic executor through its secreted N-terminal domain (GSDMD-N). However, the functional relevance and mechanistic basis of the precise roles of host colonic GSDMD in high-fat diet (HFD)-induced gut dysbiosis ...

Cleavage of DFNA5 by caspase-3 during apoptosis mediates progression to secondary necrotic/pyroptotic cell death. [PDF]
Apoptosis is a genetically regulated cell suicide programme mediated by activation of the effector caspases 3, 6 and 7. If apoptotic cells are not scavenged, they progress to a lytic and inflammatory phase called secondary necrosis.

Synoviolin alleviates GSDMD‐mediated periodontitis by suppressing its stability
AbstractIntroductionInflammasome and pyroptosis play important roles in periodontitis. Gasdermin D (GSDMD), a key factor in pyroptosis, is cleaved by caspase‐1 and regulated by ubiquitination. Synoviolin is a ubiquitin E3 ligase that interacts with GSDMD.

Gasdermin pores permeabilize mitochondria to augment caspase-3 activation during apoptosis and inflammasome activation. [PDF]
Gasdermin E (GSDME/DFNA5) cleavage by caspase-3 liberates the GSDME-N domain, which mediates pyroptosis by forming pores in the plasma membrane.

Pyroptosis, a programmed cell death, functions as an innate immune effector mechanism and plays a crucial role against microbial invasion. Gasdermin D (GSDMD), as the main pyroptosis effector, mediates pyroptosis and promotes releasing proinflammatory ...

Brainiac Caspases: Beyond the Wall of Apoptosis [PDF]
For the last two decades, caspases, a family of cysteine-aspartic proteases, have evolved from being considered solely as regulators of apoptosis or inflammation to having a wider range of functions.
