Article Title: Cistanche phenylethanoid glycosides induce apoptosis and pyroptosis in T-cell lymphoma

doi: 10.62347/GEZW9659

Figure Lengend Snippet: The molecular mechanisms of the anti-tumor properties of CPhGs. A schematic figure illustrates that CPhGs: A. Induce apoptosis by activating both intrinsic and extrinsic apoptotic pathways; B. Up-regulate pro-apoptotic factors PTEN and BAX, increase tumor-suppressor P53 by inhibiting SIRT2/MDM2 signaling, and suppress anti-apoptotic PI3K/AKT signaling; C. Induce pyroptosis by activating both caspase-4 (non-canonical pyroptosis) and caspase-3 (alternative pyroptosis) pathways; D. Inhibit proliferation by down-regulating NLRP3 and downstream IL-1β. Red lines denote inhibitory effects, and ‘x’ indicates blockade of functions. Italicized text in red shows three pyroptosis pathways. (+) and (-) denote activation and non-activation of the pathways, respectively. The figure is divided into two parts by a dotted line in the middle. The left part outlines the key components of apoptosis and their relationships. Both caspase-8 and -9 are activated to cleave the executor caspase-3, resulting in apoptosis and possibly an apoptosis-pyroptosis switch. The right part shows the mechanism of pyroptosis: GSDMD and GSDME are pyroptosis executors that form pores in the cell membrane, leading to K+ efflux, cell swelling, and death. VX765 is identified as a caspase 4 inhibitor, blocking non-canonical pyroptosis.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Figure 2. P. aeruginosa VgrG2b is cleaved by caspase-11. (A) Screening strategy for identifying caspase-11 substrates in P. aeruginosa. Briefly, P. aeruginosa cDNAs were cloned into GFP vectors containing a mitochondrial localization signal. RFP vectors with a mitochondrial localization signal were used as transfection controls.
