Caspase-1-induced pyroptosis is an innate immune effector mechanism against intracellular bacteria
Open accessAbstract
Macrophages mediate crucial innate immune responses via caspase-1-dependent processing and secretion of interleukin 1β (IL-1β) and IL-18. Although infection with wild-type Salmonella typhimurium is lethal to mice, we show here that a strain that persistently expresses flagellin was cleared by the cytosolic flagellin-detection pathway through the activation of caspase-1 by the NLRC4 inflammasome; however, this clearance was independent of IL-1β and IL-18. Instead, caspase-1-induced pyroptotic cell death released bacteria from macrophages and exposed the bacteria to uptake and killing by reactive oxygen species in neutrophils. Similarly, activation of caspase-1 cleared unmanipulated Legionella pneumophila and Burkholderia thailandensis by cytokine-independent mechanisms. This demonstrates that activation of caspase-1 clears intracellular bacteria in vivo independently of IL-1β and IL-18 and establishes pyroptosis as an efficient mechanism of bacterial clearance by the innate immune system.

From Inflammation and aging: signaling pathways and intervention therapies (2023) · cites this paper as [243]
The Discussion (page unavailable) describes pyroptosis as pro-inflammatory and says it may release inflammatory mediators and cause tissue damage. The paper does not address aging or establish a role for pyroptosis in age-related cellular dysregulation; its findings concern infection and other inflammasome stimuli. (LLM, conf=0.88)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredPyroptosis may play a specific role in aging.
“Specifically, pyroptosis may play a specific role in aging.”
From Inflammation and aging: signaling pathways and intervention therapies (2023) · cites this paper as [243]
The Discussion describes pyroptosis in pathogen clearance and possible tissue damage from inflammation, but does not connect it to aging. Searches for aging, age-related processes, and senescence found no passage addressing that connection. (LLM, conf=0.76)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredCASP1-driven pyroptosis limits spreading of intracellular bacteria by killing the host cell and generating pore-induced intracellular traps that are disposed of by efferocytosis.
“CASP1-driven pyroptosis limits the spreading of intracellular bacteria by (1) killing the host cell [637], and (2) generating so-called “pore-induced intracellular traps (PITs)”, which essentially are dead macrophages that can be efficiently disposed of (together with the living bacteria they trap) by efferocytosis [638].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
