Project description:Gasdermin D (GSDMD) is the executioner of pyroptosis, which is important for host defense against pathogen infection. After activation, caspase-mediated cleavage of GSDMD liberates an N-terminal fragment (GSDMD-NT), which oligomerizes and forms pores in the plasma membrane, leading to cell death and subsequent release of proinflammatory cytokines. How this process is spatiotemporally controlled to promote pyroptosis in cells has been a fundamental, unaddressed question. Here, we identify GSDMD as a substrate for reversible S-palmitoylation on cysteine 192 (Cys192) in response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation. We found that the palmitoyl acyltransferase DHHC7palmitoylates GSDMD to direct its cleavage by caspases in pyroptosis by promoting the interaction of GSDMD and caspases. We further show that after GSDMD cleavage, palmitoylation of GSDMD-NTpromotes its plasma membrane translocation and binding, and then acyl protein thioesterase 2 (APT2) depalmitoylates GSDMD-NT to unmask the Cys192 residue to promote oxidation-mediated oligomerization and pyroptosis. Perturbation of either palmitoylation or depalmitoylation suppresses pyroptosis, extends the survival of mice from LPS-induced lethal septic shock and sensitizes mice to bacterial infection. Thus. our findings reveal a model through which a palmitoylation-depalmitoylationrelay spatially and temporally controls GSDMD activation in pyroptosis.

Project description:Induction of cell death represents a primary goal of most anti-cancer treatments. Despite the efficacy of such approaches, a small population of “persisters” develop evasion strategies to therapy-induced cell death. While previous studies have identified mechanisms of resistance to apoptosis, the mechanisms by which persisters dampen other forms of cell death, such as pyroptosis, remain to be elucidated. Pyroptosis is a form of inflammatory cell death that involves formation of membrane pores, ion gradient imbalance, water inflow and membrane rupture. Herein, we investigate mechanisms by which cancer persisters resist pyroptosis, survive, then proliferate in the presence of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI). Lung, prostate and esophageal cancer persister cells remaining after treatments exhibited several hallmarks indicative of pyroptosis resistance. The inflammatory attributes of persisters included chronic activation of inflammasome, STING, and type I interferons. Comprehensive metabolomic characterization uncovered that TKI-induced pyroptotic persisters display high methionine consumption and excessive taurine production. Elevated methionine flux or exogenous taurine maintained plasma membrane integrity via osmolyte-mediated effects. Increased dependency on methionine flux decreased the level of one carbon metabolism intermediate S-(5'-adenosyl)-L-homocysteine, a determinant of cell methylation capacity. The consequent increase in methylation potential induced DNA hypermethylation of genes regulating metal ion balance and intrinsic immune response. This enabled thwarting TKI resistance by using the hypomethylating agent decitabine. In summary, the evolution of resistance to pyroptosis can occur via a stepwise process of physical acclimation and epigenetic changes without existing or recurrent mutations.

Project description:summary (1)Objective: To investigate the antileukemic role of Lip-1 in K562 leukemia cells. (2)Methods: We performed CCK-8, flow cytometry, microscopy, western blotting assay, next generation sequencing, PCR assays to evaluate the effect of Lip-1 in K562 leukemia cells. (3)Results: Lip-1 inhibited K562 cell proliferation in a dose- and time-dependent manner. RNA sequencing revealed several pathways that were affected by Lip-1, such as the G1/S transition of the mitotic cell cycle and extrinsic or intrinsic apoptotic signaling pathways. The results of flow cytometry indicated that Lip-1 arrests the cell cycle. K562 cells were characterized by swelling and plasma membrane rupture. The expression of the hallmark of pyroptosis, the cleaved N-terminal GSDME, increased. Endoplasmic reticulum stress and autophagy were involved in Lip-1-induced cell death. (4)Conclusion：Lip-1 induces cell cycle arrest, apoptosis, and secondary pyroptosis in K562 leukemia cells, which provides new hope for the treatment of leukemia.

Project description:The process of pyroptosis is mediated by inflammasomes and a downstream effector known as gasdermin D (GSDMD). Upon cleavage by inflammasome-associated caspases, the N-terminal domain of GSDMD forms membrane pores that promote cytolysis. Numerous proteins promote GSDMD cleavage, but none are known to be required for pore formation after GSDMD cleavage. Herein, we report a forward genetic screen that identified the Ragulator-Rag complex as being necessary for GSDMD pore formation and pyroptosis in macrophages. Mechanistic analysis revealed that Ragulator-Rag is not required for GSDMD cleavage upon inflammasome activation, but rather promotes GSDMD oligomerization in the plasma membrane. Defects in GSDMD oligomerization and pore formation can be rescued by mitochondrial poisons that stimulate reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, and ROS modulation impacts the ability of inflammasome pathways to promote pore formation downstream of GSDMD cleavage. These findings reveal an unexpected link between key regulators of immunity (inflammasome-GSDMD) and metabolism (Ragulator-Rag).

Project description:Acidic tumor microenvironment (TME)-evoked MRC nanoparticles (MRC NPs) co-delivering immune agonist RGX-104 and photosensitizer chlorine e6 (Ce6) are reported for pyroptosis-mediated immunotherapy. RGX-104 remodels TME by transcriptional activation of ApoE to regress myeloid-derived suppressor cells’ (MDSCs) activity, which neatly creates foreshadowing for intensifying pyroptosis. Considering Ce6-triggered photodynamic therapy (PDT) can strengthen oxidative stress and organelles destruction to increase immunogenicity, immunomodulatory-photodynamic MRC nanodrugs will implement an aforementioned two-pronged strategy to enhance gasdermin E (GSDME)-dependent pyroptosis. RNA-seq analysis of MRC at the cellular level is introduced to first elucidate the intimate relationship between RGX-104 acting on LXR/ApoE axis and pyroptosis, where RGX-104 provides the prerequisite for pyroptosis participating in antitumor therapy. Briefly, MRC with favorable biocompatibility tackles the obstacle of hydrophobic drugs delivery, and becomes a powerful pyroptosis inducer to reinforce immune efficacy. MRC-elicited pyroptosis in combination with anti-PD-1 blockade therapy boosts immune response in solid tumors, successfully arresting invasive metastasis and extending survival based on remarkable antitumor immunity. MRC may initiate a new window for immuno-photo pyroptosis stimulators augmenting pyroptosis-based immunotherapy. Owing to the transcriptome sequencing on 4T1 cells exposed to various treatment, pyroptosis mechanism of MRC was thoroughly analyzed via comparing the expression discrepancy among PBS, MRC, and MRC+L groups.

Project description:Macrophages are involved in the pathophysiology of many diseases as critical cells of the innate immune system. Pyroptosis is a form of macrophage death that induces cytokinesis of phagocytic substances in the macrophages, thereby defending against infection. Dimethyl itaconate (DI) is an analog of itaconic acid with anti-inflammatory effects. However, the effect of dimethyl itaconate on macrophage pyroptosis has not been elucidated clearly. Thus, the present study aimed to analyze the effect of DI treatment on a macrophage pyroptosis model (Lipopolysaccharide, LPS+Adenosine Triphosphate, ATP). The results showed that 0.25 mM DI ameliorated macrophage pyroptosis and downregulated interleukin (IL)-1β expression. Then, real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was used to confirm the result of RNA-sequencing of the upregulated oxidative stress-related genes (Gclc and Gss) and downregulated inflammation-related genes (IL-12β and IL-1β). In addition, Gene Ontology (GO) enrichment analysis showed that differential genes were associated with transcript levels and DNA replication. Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes (KEGG) enrichment showed that signaling pathways, such as tumor necrosis factor (TNF), Jak, Toll-like receptor and IL-17, were altered after DI treatment. N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) reversed the DI effect on the LPS+ATP-induced macrophage pyroptosis and upregulated the IL-1β expression. Oxidative stress-related protein Nrf2 is involved in the DI regulation of macrophage pyroptosis. Taken together, these findings suggested that DI alleviates the pyroptosis of macrophages through oxidative stress.

Project description:Cell death plays a critical role in inflammatory responses. During pyroptosis, inflammatory caspases cleave Gasdermin D (GSDMD) to release an N-terminal fragment that generates plasma membrane pores that mediate cell lysis and IL-1 release. However, certain stimuli and cell types release IL-1 cytokines through GSDMD pores in cells that remain viable, a process termed hyperactivation. How these distinct cell fate choices are regulated downstream of GSDMD pore formation is unknown. Here, we demonstrate that the Card19 locus promotes lysis downstream of caspase activation. Despite being largely protected from cell death, CARD19-deficient macrophages had no defect in caspase activation, IL-1 secretion, or GSDMD cleavage. CARD19, a mitochondrial protein, was not responsible for the observed phenotypes, nor was the recently identified pore forming protein NINJ1 which regulates terminal pore formation during multiple forms of cell death. Furthermore, previously identified cell death phenotypes attributed to Sterile alpha and heat Armadillo motif-containing protein (SARM) were revealed to be caused by a passenger mutation. Importantly, Card19-/ mice had increased susceptibility to Yersinia infection, including increased mortality, higher bacterial burdens and pronounced splenomegaly. These findings implicate the Card19 locus as a factor that couples caspase processing and GSDMD cleavage to cell death, providing insight into how the checkpoint between hyperactivation and cell death is regulated.

Project description:As a new type of cell death mediated by Gasdermin (GSDM) family, pyroptosis has increasingly become a research hotspot in the fields of biology and medicine. Studies have found that a variety of drugs (such as etoposide and traditional Chinese medicine extracts) can effectively inhibit the occurrence and development of tumors by activating caspase family and GSDM protein family to induce pyroptosis. Promoting pyroptosis has become an effective method for the treatment of tumors, but the research on its regulatory mechanism is still lacking. In order to explore the key molecular pathways of etoposide-induced pyroptosis, transcriptome sequencing analysis was performed
