This study identifies EccB5 as a key Mtb effector that drives pyroptosis and enhances virulence by interacting with GSDMD and caspase-1.

The paper identifies HWS-AGO1 interactions critical for miRNA degradation via target mimicry in Arabidopsis through a genetic screen and functional analysis.

This paper identifies GSDME as a mediator of neurodegeneration in Parkinson's disease by linking mitochondrial damage to pyroptotic cell death through caspase-3 activation.

The paper shows that specific peptides inhibit Aβ aggregation and reduce cognitive impairment in Alzheimer's disease models.

This study shows RING1 suppresses pyroptosis by ubiquitinating GSDMD, reducing inflammation and pathogen susceptibility in mice.

The paper identifies and engineers a compact SlugCas9 variant with broad targeting range, high specificity, and activity for genome editing.
