Evolutionary and Functional Analysis of Caspase-8 and ASC Interactions to Drive Lytic Cell Death, PANoptosis
25 Apr 2025
Abstract excerpt
Caspases are evolutionarily conserved proteins essential for driving cell death in development and host defense. Caspase-8, a key member of the caspase family, is implicated in nonlytic apoptosis, as well as lytic forms of cell death. Recently, caspase-8 has been identified as an integral component of PANoptosomes, multiprotein complexes formed in response to innate immune sensor activation. Several innate immune...
