Abstract:
Pyroptosis is a kind of proinflammatory programmed cell death mediated by inflammasome.It affects the occurrence and development of gastric cancer through different ways,showing dual effects.On the one hand,inflammasome-mediated inflammatory response is highly likely to participate in the formation and development of early tumors;on the other hand,drugs can inhibit the deterioration process of tumor proliferation,invasion and metastasis through activating the pathways of inflammasome and pyroptosis.Recently,many agents based on pyroptosis have been found to inhibit gastric cancer by promoting the secondary pyroptosis pathway,regulating NOD-like receptor family pyrin domain containing 3(NLRP3)inflammasome and inhibiting caspase-1.The establishment of cell pyrodeath models can predict the prognosis of gastric cancer patients.Most of the models show that gastric cancer patients with high pyroptosis level have better prognosis and longer overall survival.Pyroptosis scores can also be used to predict the response of gastric cancer patients to immunotherapy and to screen potential anti-gastric cancer drugs.Therefore,in-depth understanding of the potential mechanism of pyroptosis affecting the progression of gastric cancer and the role of pyroptosis score in the treatment and prognosis assessment of gastric cancer will be helpful to find a new and effective method for the treatment of gastric cancer.
