Role of pyroptosis in atherosclerosis and its therapeutic
Atherosclerosis is a significant cardiovascular burden and a leading cause of death worldwide, recognized as a chronic sterile inflammatory disease. Pyroptosis is a novel proinflammatory regulated cell death, characterized by cell swelling, plasma membrane bubbling, and robust release of proinflamma …
GSDME-mediated pyroptosis promotes the progression and
Feb 18, 2023 · Pyroptosis, a type of Gasdermin-mediated cell death, contributes to an exacerbation of inflammation. To test the hypothesis that GSDME-mediated pyroptosis aggravates the progression of...
Roles of pyroptosis in atherosclerosis pathogenesis
Oct 1, 2023 · Pyroptosis is a pro-inflammatory type of regulated cell death (RCD) characterized by gasdermin protein-mediated membrane pore formation, cell swelling, and rapid lysis. Recent studies have suggested that pyroptosis is closely related to atherosclerosis (AS).
Pyroptosis and its relationship to atherosclerosis - PubMed
Pyroptosis is a pro-inflammatory form of regulated cell death and is dependent on the enzymatic activity of inflammatory proteases that belong to the family of cysteine-dependent aspartate-specific proteases (caspases). Pyroptosis is morphologically, mechanistically, and pathophysiologically distinc …
The Molecular Pathways of Pyroptosis in Atherosclerosis
Pyroptosis is a newly discovered pattern of programmed cellular necrosis (Bin He et al., 2021), characterized by cell swelling, plasma membrane rupture, and massive production and release of pro-inflammatory factors, triggering a cascade of amplified inflammatory responses, often induced by endogenous injury or bacterial and viral infections (Zh...
Role of pyroptosis in atherosclerosis and its therapeutic …
Atherosclerosis is a significant cardiovascular burden and a leading cause of death worldwide, recognized as a chronic sterile inflammatory disease. Pyroptosis is a novel proinflammatory regulated cell death, characterized by cell swelling, plasma membrane bubbling, and robust release of proinflammatory cytokines (such as interleukin IL-1β and ...
Pyroptosis in the Initiation and Progression of Atherosclerosis
May 25, 2021 · Here, we provide an overview of the role of pyroptosis in atherosclerosis by focusing on three important participating cells: ECs, macrophages, and SMCs. In addition, we also summarized drugs and stimuli that regulate the progression of …
GSDMD-mediated pyroptosis: molecular mechanisms, diseases …
Pyroptosis is a regulated form of inflammatory cell death in which Gasdermin D (GSDMD) plays a central role as the key effector molecule. ... Atherosclerosis, characterized as an inflammatory disease associated with endothelial cell dysfunction, suppresses miR-223 expression through sequence complementarity with long non-coding RNA (lncRNA ...

GSDMD-mediated pyroptosis: molecular mechanisms, diseases …
Feb 25, 2025 · Pyroptosis is a regulated form of inflammatory cell death in which Gasdermin D (GSDMD) plays a central role as the key effector molecule. GSDMD-mediated pyroptosis is characterized by complex biological features and considerable heterogeneity in its expression, mechanisms, and functional outcomes across various tissues, cell types, and pathological microenvironments. This heterogeneity is ...
