In a recent article, He et al. report that, in response to dietary protein antigens, mouse intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) accumulate a newfound 13-kDa N terminus of gasdermin D (GSDMD-N13), cleaved by caspase-3/7. Unlike the pyroptotic 30-kDa fragment, GSDMD-N13 translocates to the nucleus, inducing CIITA and major histocompatibility complex class II (MHCII) expression to promote type 1 regulatory T (T1r) cell development, thus revealing its role in balancing immunity and food tolerance.
在最近的一篇文章中,何等人报道称,在响应膳食蛋白抗原时,小鼠肠上皮细胞(IECs)积累gasdermin D(GSDMD)的新的 13kDa N 末端(GSDMD-N13),该片段被 caspase-3/7 切割。与致炎的 30kDa 片段不同,GSDMD-N13 易位到细胞核,诱导 CIITA 和主要组织相容性复合体 II(MHCII)的表达,以促进 1 型调节性 T(T1r)细胞的发育,从而揭示其在平衡免疫和食物耐受中的作用。
