The Role and Mechanism of GSDME-Dependent Pyroptosis in Cochlear Marginal Cells Injury by Cisplatin
Background: Elucidating the mechanisms underlying cisplatin-induced ototoxicity is critical for the clinical management of hearing loss. While cisplatin is known to penetrate the inner ear via the blood-labyrinth barrier in the stria vascularis, its ...

GSDME unlocks astrocyte-driven neurotoxicity in Alzheimer’s Disease [PDF]
SUMMARY Astrocytic calcium dysregulation and reactivity precede Aβ deposition in amyloid-β deposition in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) but the neurotoxic mechanisms remain unclear. We show that GSDME acts as a switch, linking MAM-mediated calcium release to astrocyte-driven neurotoxicity.

Pyroptosis in Peripheral Neuropathy: From Molecular Mechanisms to Therapeutic Targeting. [PDF]
Pyroptosis is a key inflammatory cell death pathway in peripheral neuropathy, with opposing roles: it perpetuates neuropathic pain but can be induced to kill neuroblastoma cells. This review consolidates mechanistic understanding and therapeutic strategies, arguing for a shift from disease‐centric to target‐centric treatment approaches to improve ...

Gasdermin E deficiency attenuates acute kidney injury by inhibiting pyroptosis and inflammation
Pyroptosis, one kind of inflammatory regulated cell death, is involved in various inflammatory diseases, including acute kidney injury (AKI). Besides Gasdermin D (GSDMD), GSDME is a newly identified mediator of pyroptosis via the cleavage of caspase-3 ...

Roll with the punches: Fibroblast growth factor 10 alleviates pyroptosis of alveolar epithelial cells in different immune niches. [PDF]
Our study reveals a marked decrease of serum FGF10 levels in ARDS patients, correlating with P/F ratio, hospitalisation days and mortality rates. We clarify how FGF10 prevents AECs' pyroptosis triggered by different immune cell infiltrations in different ways.

BECN1 modulates hematopoietic stem cells by targeting Caspase-3-GSDME-mediated pyroptosis
Abstract Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) maintain the blood system throughout the lifespan. However, the molecular mechanism maintaining HSC character remains not fully understood. In this study, we observed that the targeted deletion of Becn1 disrupts the blood system and impairs the reconstitution capacity of HSCs ...

NET formation is a default epigenetic program controlled by PAD4 in apoptotic neutrophils. [PDF]
Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) not only counteract bacterial and fungal pathogens but can also promote thrombosis, autoimmunity, and sterile inflammation. The presence of citrullinated histones, generated by the peptidylarginine deiminase 4 (PAD4),

ER stress induces caspase-2-tBID-GSDME-dependent cell death in neurons lytically infected with herpes simplex virus type 2 [PDF]
Neurotropic viruses, including herpes simplex virus (HSV) types 1 and 2, have the capacity to infect neurons and can cause severe diseases. This is associated with neuronal cell death, which may contribute to morbidity or even mortality if the infection ...
