Abstract

The gasdermin (GSDM) protein family plays a pivotal role in pyroptosis, a process critical to the body's immune response, particularly in combatting bacterial infections, impeding tumor invasion, and contributing to the pathogenesis of various inflammatory diseases. These proteins are adept at activating inflammasome signaling pathways, recruiting immune effector cells, creating an inflammatory immune microenvironment, and initiating pyroptosis. This article serves as an introduction to the GSDM protein-mediated pyroptosis signaling pathways, providing an overview of GSDMs' involvement in tumor immunity. Additionally, we explore the potential applications of GSDMs in both innovative and established antitumor strategies.
