Targeting pyroptosis for cancer immunotherapy: mechanistic insights and clinical perspectives

Abstract excerpt

Pyroptosis is a distinct form of programmed cell death characterized by the rupture of the cell membrane and robust inflammatory responses. Increasing evidence suggests that pyroptosis significantly affects the tumor microenvironment and antitumor immunity by releasing damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) and pro-inflammatory mediators, thereby establishing it as a pivotal target in cancer immunotherapy....
