Ac-FLTD-CMK is an inhibitor of caspase-1, -4, -5, and -11.1 It inhibits caspase-1, -4, and -5 (IC50s = 0.0467, 1.49, and 0.329, respectively, for the recombinant human enzymes) and cleavage of gasdermin D (GSDMD), an effector involved in pyroptosis and NETosis, by mouse caspase-11 when used at a concentration of 10 ?M. Ac-FLTD-CMK (10 ?M) inhibits LPS- and ATP- or LPS- and nigericin-induced pyroptosis and IL-1β release in mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs).

Ac-FLTD-CMK inhibits pyroptosis and exerts neuroprotective effect in a mice model of traumatic brain injury
Neuroreport 2021 Feb 3;32(3):188-197.PMID:33470761DOI:10.1097/WNR.0000000000001580.
Pyroptosis has been reported to contribute to the traumatic brain injury (TBI) process. Ac-FLTD-CMK is a newly synthesized pyroptosis inhibitor. However, whether Ac-FLTD-CMK inhibits pyroptosis and plays a neuroprotective role after TBI is unknown. The present study aimed to determine the effects of Ac-FLTD-CMK on TBI in a mouse model. Male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into sham, TBI + vehicle, and TBI + Ac-FLTD-CMK groups. TBI was induced using a weight-drop apparatus. Intraventricular injection of Ac-FLTD-CMK was performed 30 min after TBI. Caspase-1, caspase-11, gasdermin-D (GSDMD), and caspase-3 expression in the peri-contusional cortex were assessed by western blotting. Interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and interleukin-18 (IL-18) expression in the peri-contusional cortex were measured using ELISA. Behavioral experiments, brain water content, Evans blue extravasation, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release, and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP-biotin nick end labeling staining were also performed. The results showed that Ac-FLTD-CMK administration significantly downregulated caspase-1 p20, caspase-11 p20, GSDMD N-terminal, IL-1β, and IL-18 expression; reduced LDH release; alleviated neuronal death; attenuated brain edema and blood-brain barrier damage; and improved neurobehavioral function. These findings indicate that Ac-FLTD-CMK treatment suppresses pyroptosis and protects mice against TBI.
Novel Effects of Combination Therapy Through Inhibition of Caspase-1/Gasdermin D Induced-Pyroptosis in Lupus Nephritis
Front Immunol 2021 Nov 19;12:720877.PMID:34867948DOI:10.3389/fimmu.2021.720877.
Objectives: Combination therapy with mycophenolate mofetil, tacrolimus and steroids are effective in achieving complete remission in lupus nephritis (LN). Combination therapy uniquely downregulated caspase-1 compared with monotherapies, which can cleave gasdermin D (GSDMD) and was recently identified as the pyroptosis executioner. We therefore investigated whether combination therapy enabled the suppression of caspase-1/GSDMD-mediated pyroptosis in LN. Methods: Expression and activation of GSDMD were detected in kidney specimens of the human and mouse with LN using immunohistochemical staining and immunoblotting. Primary podocytes isolated from MRL/lpr mice were incubated with LPS+ATP, and pretreated with monotherapy or combination therapy. Inhibition of caspase-1/GSDMD-induced pyroptosis by combination therapy were assessed in MRL/lpr mice and human specimens. Pyroptosis was examined using a FAM caspase-1 kit and flow cytometry. The correlation between pyroptosis in peripheral blood and the systemic lupus erythematosus disease activity index (SLEDAI) was analyzed. Results: Kidney tissue specimens from LN patients and mice exhibited greatly increased expression levels and cleavage of GSDMD. In cultured podocytes, combination treatment significantly suppressed the activation of NLRP3 and caspase-1 and reduced GSDMD N-terminal levels. Combination therapy repressed disease progression through inhibition of caspase-1/GSDMD-mediated pyroptosis in both humans and MRL/lpr mice. Caspase-1/PI positive cell numbers in peripheral blood were positively correlated with SLE-DAI. LN patients with complete remission and partial remission had remarkably reduced caspase-1/PI positive cell numbers compared to baseline. Ac-FLTD-CMK, a GSDMD-derived inhibitor, prevented the development of LN. Conclusion: Combination therapy suppressed caspase-1/GSDMD-mediated pyroptosis in vitro and in vivo and reduced disease progression.
Mechanism of gasdermin D recognition by inflammatory caspases and their inhibition by a gasdermin D-derived peptide inhibitor
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 2018 Jun 26;115(26):6792-6797.PMID:29891674DOI:10.1073/pnas.1800562115.
The inflammasomes are signaling platforms that promote the activation of inflammatory caspases such as caspases-1, -4, -5, and -11. Recent studies identified gasdermin D (GSDMD) as an effector for pyroptosis downstream of the inflammasome signaling pathways. Cleavage of GSDMD by inflammatory caspases allows its N-terminal domain to associate with membrane lipids and form pores that induce pyroptotic cell death. Despite the important role of GSDMD in pyroptosis, the molecular mechanisms of GSDMD recognition and cleavage by inflammatory caspases that trigger pyroptosis are poorly understood. Here, we demonstrate that the catalytic domains of inflammatory caspases can directly bind to both the full-length GSDMD and its cleavage site peptide, FLTD. A GSDMD-derived inhibitor, N-acetyl-Phe-Leu-Thr-Asp-chloromethylketone (Ac-FLTD-CMK), inhibits GSDMD cleavage by caspases-1, -4, -5, and -11 in vitro, suppresses pyroptosis downstream of both canonical and noncanonical inflammasomes, as well as reduces IL-1β release following activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome in macrophages. By contrast, the inhibitor does not target caspase-3 or apoptotic cell death, suggesting that Ac-FLTD-CMK is a specific inhibitor for inflammatory caspases. Crystal structure of caspase-1 in complex with Ac-FLTD-CMK reveals extensive enzyme-inhibitor interactions involving both hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic contacts. Comparison with other caspase-1 structures demonstrates drastic conformational changes at the four active-site loops that assemble the catalytic groove. The present study not only contributes to our understanding of GSDMD recognition by inflammatory caspases but also reports a specific inhibitor for these caspases that can serve as a tool for investigating inflammasome signaling.
NLRP6-caspase 4 inflammasome activation in response to cariogenic bacterial lipoteichoic acid in human dental pulp inflammation
Int Endod J 2021 Jun;54(6):916-925.PMID:33377178DOI:10.1111/iej.13469.
Aim: To explore the presence and function of NLRP6-caspase 4 inflammasome in human pulp tissue and human dental pulp cells (HDPCs). Methodology: Pulp tissue was collected from freshly extracted human caries-free third molars and third molars with irreversible pulpitis. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and western blot were performed to assess the expression of NLRP6-caspase 4 inflammasome. HDPCs were prepared from normal human pulp tissues and challenged with Porphyromonas gingivalis LPS. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and qRT-PCR were performed to assess if LPS can upregulate NLRP6 and caspase-4. HDPCs were further challenged with LPS followed with cytosolic Streptococcus mutans lipoteichoic acid (LTA). SiRNA targeting NLRP6 and Casp4 and pharmacology inhibitor Ac-FLTD-CMK and MCC950 were used to assess if Streptococcus mutans LTA can activate the NLRP6 but not the NLRP3 inflammasome. Western blot and ELISA were performed to evaluate inflammasome activation. The Student's t-test and one-way anova were used for statistical analysis. Results: NLRP6-caspase 4 inflammasome was upregulated and activated in inflamed human dental pulp tissue. In HDPCs, Porphyromonas gingivalis LPS upregulated the expression of NLRP6, CASP1 and CASP4 in a type I interferon dependent manner. After LPS priming, cytosolic Streptococcus mutans LTA triggered NLRP6-caspase 4 inflammasome activation. Knockdown of NLRP6 or CASP4 using siRNA or using pharmacology inhibitor Ac-FLTD-CMK but not MCC950 efficiently suppressed inflammasome activation by cytosolic LTA. Conclusions: NLRP6-caspase 4 inflammasome may play an important role in pulp inflammation and immune defence. Inflammatory caspases represent a pharmacological target to restrain pulpal inflammation.
