GSDME-mediated pyroptosis promotes the progression and associated inflammation of atherosclerosis
18 Feb 2023
Abstract excerpt
Abstract 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 atherosclerosis, we generate ApoE and GSDME dual deficiency mice. As compared with the control mice, GSDME −/− /ApoE −/− mice show a reduction of atherosclerotic lesion area and inflammatory response when induced with a...
