Treatment of Severe Acute Pancreatitis and Related Lung Injury by Targeting Gasdermin D-Mediated Pyroptosis

The functional relevance and effects of the pyroptosis executioner gasdermin D (GSDMD) on severe acute pancreatitis (SAP)-associated lung injury are unclear. We established caerulein-induced mouse models of SAP-associated lung injury, which showed that GSDMD-mediated pyroptosis was activated in both...

Treatment of Severe Acute Pancreatitis and Related Lung Injury by Targeting Gasdermin D-Mediated Pyroptosis
description The functional relevance and effects of the pyroptosis executioner gasdermin D (GSDMD) on severe acute pancreatitis (SAP)-associated lung injury are unclear. We established caerulein-induced mouse models of SAP-associated lung injury, which showed that GSDMD-mediated pyroptosis was activated in both pancreatic and lung tissues. Compared with Gsdmd wild-type SAP mouse models, Gsdmd knockout (Gsdmd–/–) ameliorated SAP-induced pancreas and related lung injury. Additionally, we investigated the effects of disulfiram on the treatment of SAP. Disulfiram is a Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved anti-alcoholism drug, which is reported as an effective pyroptosis inhibitor by either directly covalently modifying GSDMD or indirectly inhibiting the cleavage of GSDMD via inactivating Nod-like receptor protein 3 inflammasome. We demonstrated that disulfiram inhibited the cleavage of GSDMD, alleviated caerulein-induced SAP and related lung injury, and decreased the expression levels of proinflammatory cytokines (IL-1β and IL-18). Collectively, these findings disclosed the role of GSDMD-mediated pyroptosis in SAP and the potential application of disulfiram in the treatment of SAP.
