Cardiomyocyte pyroptosis and apoptosis play a vital role in the pathophysiology of several cardiovascular diseases. Our recent study revealed that gasdermin D (GSDMD) can promote myocardial I/R injury via the caspase-11/GSDMD pathway.

Pyroptosis in NLRP3 inflammasome-related atherosclerosis
Pyroptosis is a proinflammatory form of programmed cell death in response to inflammation. It involves in the pathogenesis and outcomes of atherosclerosis characterized by NLRP3 inflammasome assembly, membrane pore formation, cell swelling, pro ...

Inflammasome-mediated GSDMD activation facilitates escape of Candida albicans from macrophages [PDF]
AbstractCandida albicansis the most common cause of fungal sepsis. Inhibition of inflammasome activity confers resistance to polymicrobial and LPS-induced sepsis; however, inflammasome signaling appears to protect againstC. albicansinfection, so inflammasome inhibitors are not clinically useful for candidiasis. Here we show disruption of GSDMD, a known

Molecular Mechanism of Caspase-8-Dependent Interleukin-18 Activation in Pancreatic Cancer Cells Induced by 5-Fluorouracil and Nutrient Starvation. [PDF]
Nutrient starvation triggers pyroptosis with cleavage of pro‐IL‐18 and GSDMD in pancreatic cancer cells, and treatment of 5‐FU enhances this process. As a result, active IL‐18 is released and leads to inflammation. ABSTRACT Interleukin‐18 (IL‐18) is a pro‐inflammatory cytokine, and higher IL‐18 expression in pancreatic tumors is associated with poor ...

TR4 worsen urosepsis by regulating GSDMD
Abstract Background Urosepsis is a life-threatening organ disease in which pathogenic microorganisms in the urine enter the blood through the vessels, causing an imbalance in the immune response to infection. The aim of this study was to elucidate the role of testicular orphan receptor 4 (TR4) in urosepsis.

ALDOA Promotes Glycolysis and NLRP3/GSDMD Pyroptosis to Accelerate ALS Progression
ABSTRACT Objective Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is characterized by progressive motor neuron degeneration. Glycolytic dysregulation is implicated in disease progression, yet the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. This study investigates how Aldolase A (ALDOA) drives ALS progression through glycolysis‐mediated motor neuron pyroptosis.

Electrostatic influence on IL-1 transport through the GSDMD pore
Significance Gasdermin D (GSDMD) forms large pores that channel the release of alarmins, including interleukin-1 (IL-1) family cytokines, from living cells. IL-1 is synthesized as an inactive cytosolic precursor known as pro-IL-1, which is proteolytically processed into the active mature IL-1 in response to inflammasome activation or other ...
