Insights into the host-pathogen interaction: C. albicans manipulation of macrophage pyroptosis [PDF]
, 2018 The innate immune system is the first defense against invasive fungal infections, including those caused by Candida albicans. Although C. albicans can exist as a commensal, it can also cause systemic or mucosal infections, especially when the innate ...

Mesenchymal stem cells protect against TBI-induced pyroptosis in vivo and in vitro through TSG-6
Cell Communication and Signaling, 2022 Background Pyroptosis, especially microglial pyroptosis, may play an important role in central nervous system pathologies, including traumatic brain injury (TBI). Transplantation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), such as human umbilical cord MSCs (hUMSCs)

The role of pyroptosis and its crosstalk with immune therapy in breast cancer
Frontiers in Immunology, 2022 Pyroptosis is a brand-new category of programmed cell death (PCD) that is brought on by multitudinous inflammasomes, which can recognize several stimuli to pilot the cleavage of and activate inflammatory cytokines like IL-18 and IL-1β is believed to have

The Molecular Pathways of Pyroptosis in Atherosclerosis [PDF]
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022 Atherosclerosis (AS) is a chronic inflammatory disease seriously endangering human health, whose occurrence and development is related to many factors. Pyroptosis is a recently identified novel programmed cell death associated with an inflammatory response and involved in the formation and progression of AS by activating different signaling pathways ...

Pyroptosis Induction and Detection [PDF]
Current Protocols in Immunology, 2018 AbstractPyroptosis is a form of programmed pro‐inflammatory cell death that plays a protective role in the host response to infection, but can also promote pathogenic inflammation. Pyroptosis is mediated by the cysteine protease, caspase‐1. Caspase‐1 cleaves gasdermin D, releasing the N‐terminal pore‐forming domain, which inserts into the plasma ...

Inhibition of Schwann Cell Pyroptosis Promotes Nerve Regeneration in Peripheral Nerve Injury in Rats
Mediators of Inflammation, 2023 Background. Peripheral nerve injury (PNI) is one of the most debilitating injuries, but therapies for PNI are still far from satisfactory. Pyroptosis, a recently identified form of cell death, has been demonstrated to participate in different diseases ...

HMGB1 mediates lipopolysaccharide-induced macrophage autophagy and pyroptosis
BMC Molecular and Cell Biology, 2023 Autophagy and pyroptosis of macrophages play important protective or detrimental roles in sepsis. However, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear.
