GlossaryGasdermin family

group of proteins that trigger cell death and inflammation

The Gasdermin family is a group of proteins involved in the process of cell death and inflammation. These proteins can form pores in cell membranes, leading to a type of cell death called pyroptosis, which is important for fighting infections but can also contribute to inflammatory diseases.
