Blocking GSDME-mediated pyroptosis in renal tubular epithelial cells alleviates disease activity in lupus mice
12 Mar 2022
Abstract excerpt
An increase in apoptosis and/or defects in the clearance of apoptotic cells resulting in massive secondary necrosis have been recognized as the main causes of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Recent findings have revealed that gasdermin E (GSDME)-mediated pyroptosis is a mechanism associated with secondary necrosis. We aimed to investigate the effects of GSDME-mediated pyroptosis on disease activity in lupus...
