Harnessing Pyroptosis for Cancer Immunotherapy
Cancer immunotherapy is a novel pillar of cancer treatment that harnesses the immune system to fight tumors and generally results in robust antitumor immunity.

The Role of Mitochondria in Pyroptosis [PDF]
Pyroptosis is a recently discovered aspartic aspart-specific cysteine protease (Caspase-1/4/5/11) dependent mode of gene-regulated cell death cell death, which is represented by the rupture of cell membrane perforations and the production of proinflammatory mediaters like interleukin-18(IL-18) and interleukin-1β (IL-1β).

Injury and physical trauma may inflict accidental cell death, but we have come to realize during the past four decades that cells may also actively engage cell death when needed. These regulated cell death forms are intrinsically connected with human embryonic development, homeostatic maintenance and disease pathology.

Pyroptosis is the process of inflammatory cell death. The primary function of pyroptosis is to induce strong inflammatory responses that defend the host against microbe infection. Excessive pyroptosis, however, leads to several inflammatory diseases, including sepsis and autoimmune disorders. Pyroptosis can be canonical or noncanonical.

Methods for monitoring cancer cell pyroptosis
Pyroptosis is a form of proinflammatory cell death that depends on the gasdermin family of proteins. The main features of pyroptosis are altered membrane permeability, cell swelling, membrane rupture, and the ability to mobilize a strong immune response.

The phenotype of pyroptosis has been extensively studied in a variety of tumors, but the relationship between pyroptosis and esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) remains unclear. Here, 22 pyroptosis genes were downloaded from the website of Gene Set

In the last several decades, apoptosis interference has been considered clinically irrelevant in the context of renal injury. Recent discovery of programmed necrotic cell death, including necroptosis, ferroptosis, and pyroptosis refreshed our understanding of the role of cell death in kidney disease.

Emerging mechanisms of pyroptosis and its therapeutic strategy in cancer
Pyroptosis, a type of inflammatory programmed cell death, is triggered by caspase cleavage of gasdermin family proteins. Based on accumulating evidence, pyroptosis is closely associated with tumour development, but the molecular mechanism underlying ...

Pyroptosis in Periprosthetic Osteolysis
Periprosthetic osteolysis (PPO) along with aseptic loosening (AL) caused by wear particles after artificial joint replacement is the key factor in surgical failure and subsequent revision surgery, however, the precise molecular mechanism underlying PPO remains unclear.

Caspase-1 engagement and TLR-induced c-FLIP expression suppress ASC/caspase-8-dependent apoptosis by inflammasome sensors NLRP1b and NLRC4 [PDF]
The caspase activation and recruitment domain (CARD)-based inflammasome sensors NLRP1b and NLRC4 induce caspase-1-dependent pyroptosis independent of the inflammasome adaptor ASC.
