Proteins of the gasdermin family are executors of pyroptosis. Upon cleavage-dependent\/independent activation, gasdermins form pores on the cell membrane, which damage the integrity of the cell membrane and lead to pro-inflammatory cellular content release and lytic cell death. The role of gasdermin in pyroptosis-associated diseases, such as allergic diseases, neurologic disorders, infections, and cancer, showcases the tremendous therapeutic potential of targeting gasdermin. New insights into non-pyroptotic functions continue to further understanding of gasdermin. This article reviews the current knowledge of the gasdermin family, demonstrating the mechanism of activation, downstream effects, and regulatory mechanisms. The association with pyroptosis-associated diseases and the functions beyond pyroptosis are also discussed, shedding light on the broader roles in various pathologic processes. The advances in the development of targeted agonists and inhibitors with strategies for developing pyroptosis-based anti-tumor therapies are also summarised.<\/p>\n<p>Read more: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scienceopen.com\/hosted-document?doi=10.15212\/AMM-2025-0014\">https:\/\/www.scienceopen.com\/hosted-document?doi=10.15212\/AMM-2025-0014<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong># # # # # #<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>Acta Materia Medica<\/em> welcomes the submission of research articles, review articles, databases, mini reviews, commentaries, editorials, short communications, case report articles and study protocols.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Submission Process<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Submissions <em>to Acta Materia Medica<\/em> are made using ScholarOne, the online submission and peer review system.
