Vesicular transplantation of gasdermin pores propagates pyroptosis

ABSTRACT: Pyroptosis—inflammatory cell death mediated by gasdermins (GSDM)—plays crucial roles in antimicrobial defense and inflammatory diseases. Pyroptosis results in the release of proinflammatory molecules, including damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs). However, our understanding of the consequences of pyroptosis—especially beyond IL-1 cytokines and DAMPs—that govern inflammation is limited. Here, we show intercellular propagation of pyroptosis from dying cells to bystander cells in vitro and in vivo. We identified extracellular vesicles (EVs) released by pyroptosing cells as the propagator of lytic death to naïve cells, triggering inflammatory responses and tissue damage. Remarkably, DNA-PAINT super-resolution and immunoelectron microscopical analyses revealed the presence of GSDMD nanostructures, such as pores, on EVs released by pyroptotic cells. Importantly, the transplantation of these GSDMD pores on adjacent cells’ plasma membrane by EVs causes cell-extrinsic lysis of bystanders. Overall, our findings demonstrate that cell-to-cell vesicular transplantation of GSDMD pores disseminates pyroptosis, revealing a domino-like effect shaping disease-associated bystander cell death.

The Card19 locus regulates apoptosis and pyroptosis downstream of caspase activation and gasdermin D cleavage independently from IL-1 cytokine release

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.

Differences in gene expression between WT and IRF2 KO cells

Project description:Gasdermin-D (GSDMD) is cleaved by caspase-1/4/11 in response to canonical and non-canonical inflammasome activation. Upon cleavage, GSDMD oligomerizes and forms membrane pores, resulting in IL-1Î² secretion, pyroptotic cell death and inflammatory pathologies including periodic fever syndromes and septic shock â a plague on modern medicine. The transcriptional machinery that drives the expression of GSDMD is unknown. Here we show that IRF2, a member of the interferon-regulatory factor (IRF) family, is essential for the transcriptional activation of GSDMD. A forward genetic screen with ethyl-N-nitrosourea (ENU)-mutagenized mice unequivocally linked IRF2 to inflammasome signaling. Indeed, GSDMD transcript levels were highly attenuated in Irf2â/â macrophages upon Irf2 deficiency in macrophages, endothelial cells, and multiple organs, corresponding to attenuated IL-1Î² secretion and inhibited pyroptosis. Mechanistically, IRF2 binds a previously uncharacterized site within the GSDMD promoter to directly drive GSDMD transcription for execution of pyroptosis in response to canonical and non-canonical inflammasome activation. Our data illuminate a prominent transcriptional mechanism for the expression of GSDMD, a key mediator of inflammatory pathologies.

A palmitoylation-depalmitoylation relay spatiotemporally controls GSDMD activation in pyroptosis [I]

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.

Control of gasdermin D oligomerization and pyroptosis by the Ragulator-Rag-mTORC1 pathway

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).

PANoptosis, a combination of inflammatory cell death mechanisms, induced by Ophiobolin A in breast cancer cell lines

Project description:An unmet challenge in managing breast cancer is treatment failure due to resistance to apoptosis-inducing chemotherapies. Thus, it is important to identify novel non-apoptotic therapeutic agents. Several non-apoptotic programmed cell death pathways utilize specific cellular signaling events to trigger lytic and pro-inflammatory cell death. PANoptosis, which encompasses pyroptosis, apoptosis and necroptosis, is of paramount importance in the regulation of cell death and immune responses. Our study illustrates that ophiobolin A (OpA) is an anti-cancer agent that triggers lytic cell death in breast cancer cells, including triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), via a mechanism dependent on RIPK1. This study reveals that OpA induces typical pyroptosis-like characteristics, including cellular swelling, plasma membrane rupture, GSDMD cleavage and release of cytokines in breast cancer cells. The involvement of caspase 3, RIPK1, and GSDMD suggests that PANoptosis is activated upon OpA treatment in breast cancer. The induction of pro-inflammatory cell death suggests potential applications for OpA in cancer treatment.

Shigella Ubiquitin ligase IpaH7.8 targets gasdermin D for degradation to prevent pyroptosis and enable infection

Project description:The pore-forming protein gasdermin D (GSDMD) executes lytic cell death called pyroptosis to eliminate the replicative niche of intracellular pathogens. Evolution favors pathogens that circumvent this host defense mechanism. Here, we show that the Shigella ubiquitin ligase IpaH7.8 functions as an inhibitor of GSDMD. Shigella is an enteroinvasive bacterium that causes hemorrhagic gastroenteritis in primates, but not rodents. IpaH7.8 contributes to species specificity by ubiquitinating human, but not mouse, GSDMD and targeting it for proteasomal degradation. Accordingly, infection of human epithelial cells with IpaH7.8-deficient Shigella flexneri results in increased GSDMD-dependent cell death compared with wild type. Consistent with pyroptosis contributing to murine disease resistance, eliminating GSDMD from NLRC4-deficient mice, which are already sensitized to oral infection with Shigella flexneri, leads to further enhanced bacterial replication and increased disease severity. This work highlights a species-specific pathogen arms race focused on maintenance of host cell viability.

Oxylipins and metabolites from pyroptotic cells act as promoters of tissue repair

Project description:Pyroptosis is a lytic cell death mode that helps limit the spread of infections and is also linked to pathology in sterile inflammatory diseases and autoimmune diseases. During pyroptosis, inflammasome activation and the engagement of caspase-1 lead to cell death, along with the maturation and secretion of the inflammatory cytokine interleukin 1β (IL-1β). The dominant effect of IL-1β in promoting tissue inflammation has clouded the potential influence of other factors released from pyroptotic cells. Here, using a system where macrophages are induced to undergo pyroptosis without IL-1β/⍺ release (denoted Pyro-1), we uncover unexpected beneficial effects of the Pyro-1 secretome. First, we noted that the Pyro-1 supernatants upregulated gene signatures linked to migration, cellular proliferation, and wound healing. Consistent with this gene signature, Pyro-1 supernatants boosted migration of primary fibroblasts and macrophages, as well as faster wound closure in vitro, and improved tissue repair in vivo. In mechanistic studies, lipidomics and metabolomics of the Pyro-1 supernatants identified the presence of both oxylipins and metabolites, linking them to pro-wound healing effects. Focusing specifically on the oxylipin prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), we find that PGE2 synthesis is induced de novo during pyroptosis, downstream of caspase-1 activation, and COX2 activity; further, PGE2 synthesis occurs late in pyroptosis, with its release dependent on Gasdermin D pores opened during pyroptosis. As for the pyroptotic metabolites, they link to immune cell infiltration into the wounds, and polarization to CD301+ macrophages. Collectively, these data advance the concept that the pyroptotic secretome 1 Mehrotra et al., Page No. possesses oxylipins and metabolites with tissue repair properties that may be harnessed therapeutically.

The collaboration of GSDMD and GSDME in folic acid (FA)-induced renal injury

Project description:Acute kidney injury(AKI) is associated with an increased risk of chronic kidney disease(CKD). There is still a lack of effective prevention for AKI-CKD transition. In the present study, we simultaneously explored the contribution of GSDMD and GSDME in folic acid (FA)-induced nephropathy, a model mimicking the essential components of the AKI-CKD transition. We found that blockage of both GSDMD and GSDME-mediated pyroptosis could have accumulative protection against FA-induced AKI-CKD transition. GSDME-mediated pyroptosis played a crucial role in tubular cell damage. GSDMD could exert important functions in infiltration of inflammatory cells and NETs formation. Pyroptotic tubular cells triggered NETs generation and macrophage polarization. NETs promoted macrophage-to-myofibroblast transition. Our results illustrated the orchestration of GSDMD and GSDME in AKI-CKD transition, providing new insights into the molecular mechanism for the clinical dilemma.

Regulation of pyroptosis in radiation induces mouse intestine cells

Project description:Pyroptosis is a recently discovered form of lytic cell death that is characterized by cell swelling and formation of pores and large bubbles on the plasma membrane. We find radiation could induce pyroptosis in human colorectal cancer HCT116 cells, and irradiation induces pyroptosis in mouse normal intestine MODEK cells only after 36 hours and over 8.0 Gy. In view of the significant pyroptosis effect of MODE-K cells, we selected 4Gy and 12Gy, 24h and 48h for experiments. After ONT full-length transcriptome sequencing, the cell pyroptosis model can screen out the differential genes related to cell pyroptosis, which is helpful to further explore the mechanism of pyroptosis of MODE-K cells.
