    Abstract Both lytic and apoptotic cell death remove senescent and damaged cells in living organisms. However, they elicit contrasting pro- and anti-inflammatory responses, respectively. The precise cellular mechanism that governs the choice between these two modes of death remains incompletely understood. Here we identify Gasdermin E (GSDME) as a master switch for neutrophil lytic pyroptotic death. The tightly regulated GSDME cleavage and activation in aging neutrophils are mediated by proteinase-3 and caspase-3, leading to pyroptosis. GSDME deficiency does not alter neutrophil overall survival rate; instead, it specifically precludes pyroptosis and skews neutrophil death towards apoptosis, thereby attenuating inflammatory responses due to augmented efferocytosis of apoptotic neutrophils by macrophages. In a clinically relevant acid-aspiration-induced lung injury model, neutrophil-specific deletion of GSDME reduces pulmonary inflammation, facilitates inflammation resolution, and alleviates lung injury. Thus, by controlling the mode of neutrophil death, GSDME dictates host inflammatory outcomes, providing a potential therapeutic target for infectious and inflammatory diseases.

    Abstract Gasdermin D (GSDMD)-mediated macrophage pyroptosis plays a critical role in inflammation and host defense. Plasma membrane perforation elicited by caspase-cleaved GSDMD N-terminal domain (GSDMD-NT) triggers membrane rupture and subsequent pyroptotic cell death, resulting in release of pro-inflammatory IL-1β and IL-18. However, the biological processes leading to its membrane translocation and pore formation are not fully understood. Here, using a proteomics approach, we identified fatty acid synthase (FASN) as a GSDMD-binding partner and demonstrated that post-translational palmitoylation of GSDMD at Cys191/Cys192 (human/mouse) led to membrane translocation of GSDMD-NT but not full-length GSDMD. GSDMD lipidation, mediated by palmitoyl acyltransferases ZDHHC5/9 and facilitated by LPS-induced reactive oxygen species (ROS), was essential for GSDMD pore-forming activity and pyroptosis. Inhibition of GSDMD palmitoylation with palmitate analog 2-bromopalmitate or a cell permeable GSDMD-specific competing peptide suppressed pyroptosis and IL-1β release in macrophages, mitigated organ damage, and extended the survival of septic mice. Collectively, we establish GSDMD-NT palmitoylation as a key regulatory mechanism controlling GSDMD membrane localization and activation, providing a novel target for modulating immune activity in infectious and inflammatory diseases.
    One sentence summary: LPS-induced palmitoylation at Cys191/Cys192 is required for GSDMD membrane translocation and its pore-forming activity in macrophages.

    Abstract Since sepsis was defined three decades ago, it has been a target of intensive study. However, there is no specific sepsis treatment available, with its high mortality and morbidity. αDβ2 (CD11d/CD18) is one of the four β2 integrin members. Its role in sepsis has been limitedly studied. Using an experimental polymicrobial sepsis model, we found that the deficiency of αDβ2 was associated with less lung injury and better outcome, which was in sharp contrast to other β2 integrin member αLβ2 (CD11a/CD18), and αMβ2 (CD11b/CD18). This phenotype was supported by a reduction of bacterial loads in αDβ2 knockout mice. Further analysis showed that the deficiency of αDβ2 led to a reduction of neutrophil cell death as well as an increase in neutrophil phagocytosis in both murine and human systems. Our data showed a unique role of αDβ2 among the β2 integrin members, which would serve as a potential target to improve the outcome of sepsis.

    Abstract The average lifespan of a neutrophil is less than 24 h, which limits basic research on neutrophils and the application of neutrophil studies. Our previous research indicated that multiple pathways could mediate the spontaneous death of neutrophils. A cocktail was developed by simultaneously targeting these pathways, caspases-lysosomal membrane permeabilization-oxidant-necroptosis inhibition plus granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (CLON-G), which prolonged the neutrophil lifespan to greater than 5 days without significantly compromising the neutrophil function. Concurrently, a reliable and stable protocol for assessing and evaluating neutrophil death was also developed. In this work, we show that CLON-G can prolong the neutrophil lifespan in vitro to more than 5 days, and we exhibit the lengthening of the neutrophil lifespan with FACS and confocal fluorescence microscopy. This report introduces procedures for the preparation of CLON-G and showcases an in vitro spontaneous death assay of neutrophils, which can be used for the study of neutrophils and for subsequently interrogating neutrophil death, thus providing a reliable resource for the neutrophil community.

    Abstract Neutrophil recruitment to sites of infection and inflammation is an essential process in the early innate immune response. Upon activation, a subset of neutrophils rapidly assembles the multiprotein complex known as the NLRP3 inflammasome. The NLRP3 inflammasome forms at the microtubule organizing center, which promotes the formation of interleukin (IL)-1β and IL-18, essential cytokines in the immune response. We recently showed that mice deficient in NLRP3 (NLRP3
