GSDMD induces hepatocyte pyroptosis to trigger alcoholic hepatitis through modulating mitochondrial dysfunction
© 2024. The Author(s)..
BACKGROUND: Mechanisms and consequences of Gasdermin D (GSDMD) activation in alcoholic hepatitis (AH) are unclear. In the present study, we investigated whether GSDMD induces hepatocyte pyroptosis by regulating mitochondrial dysfunction in AH.
RESULTS: Liver damage in AH mice was assessed by HE staining, serum levels of AST, ALT, TC, and TG. The levels of IL-1β, IL-18, LDH, inflammasome-associated proteins and hepatocyte death were assessed to determine pyroptosis. Mitochondrial dysfunction was assessed through various parameters including mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) levels, ROS generation, mitochondrial membrane potential, ATP contents, levels of mitochondrial function-related proteins and morphological changes of mitochondria. AH induced gasdermin D (GSDMD) activation, leading to increased protein expression of N-terminal GSDMD (GSDMD-N), NLRP3, and Caspase 11 in liver tissues. Downregulation of GSDMD alleviated alcohol-induced hepatocyte pyroptosis. Alcohol also causes mitochondrial dysfunction in hepatocytes in AH, which was improved by inhibiting GSDMD. Furthermore, enhancing mitochondrial function suppressed alcohol-induced hepatocyte pyroptosis. Further, knockdown of GSDMD or dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1) improved AH-induced liver injury, accompanied by a decrease in hepatocyte pyroptosis.
CONCLUSION: GSDMD induces hepatocyte pyroptosis by modulating mitochondrial dysfunction during AH-induced inflammation and liver injury. These findings may pave the way to develop new therapeutic treatments for AH.
