Abstract Gasdermin D (GSDMD) functions as a pivotal executor of pyroptosis, eliciting cytokine secretion following cleavage by inflammatory caspases. However, the role of posttranslational modifications (PTMs) in GSDMD-mediated pyroptosis remains largely unexplored. In this study, we demonstrate that GSDMD can undergo acetylation at the Lysine 248 residue, and this acetylation enhances pyroptosis. We identify histone deacetylase 4 (HDAC4) as the specific deacetylase responsible for mediating GSDMD deacetylation, leading to the inhibition of pyroptosis both in vitro and in vivo. Deacetylation of GSDMD impairs its ubiquitination, resulting in the inhibition of pyroptosis. Intriguingly, phosphorylation of HDAC4 emerges as a critical regulatory mechanism promoting its ability to deacetylate GSDMD and suppress GSDMD-mediated pyroptosis. Additionally, we implicate Protein phosphatase 1 (PP1) catalytic subunits (PP1α and PP1γ) in the dephosphorylation of HDAC4, thereby nullifying its deacetylase activity on GSDMD. This study reveals a complex regulatory network involving HDAC4, PP1, and GSDMD. These findings provide valuable insights into the interplay among acetylation, ubiquitination, and phosphorylation in the regulation of pyroptosis, offering potential targets for further investigation in the field of inflammatory cell death. |
