<p>Bacterial therapy has unique capabilities that are unachievable with conventional methods in cancer therapeutics. For example, it can target tumors specifically, stay in body for a longer period of time, and move to distal regions. In our project, we redesign Salmonella to act as a delivery vehicle that can target tumor cells and replicate in their cytoplasm. By using inducer to trigger bacterial expression of the N-terminal domain of GasderminD protein, bacteria can be led to lysis and release this protein into the cytoplasm of tumor cell and then induce pyroptosis to the cell by making membrane pores. Along with this process, the released cytokines such as IL-1β attract immune cells to fight the tumor cell. Our project which aims to induce pyroptosis to tumor cells provides a new approach for cancer therapy.</p>

Backgroud about pyroptosis

Pyroptosis is a lytic form of inflammatory cell death which is induced by caspases 1, 3, 4, 5 and 11. The morpholog of pyroptosis is characterized by cell swelling which causes release of cytoplasmic contents of the cell, including proinflammatory cytokines, endogenous ligands, alarmins, ATP, and other danger-associated molecular patterns.1 A recent study reported that Gasdermin D is a essential effector of pyroptosis.2 Full length GasderminD can be cleave by Caspase when host cell defined the infection. Thus, the N-terminal of Gasdermin D named PTD(pore-forming domain) which can oligomerize to form pore on the plasm membrane is exposured from RD (repressor domain)3. subsequently, sodium and water rush into cell causes the cell swelling result in cell rupture. Simultaneously, IL-1β is released in to extracellular environment though the gasdermin pore4 (Fig 1).(找美工画)

Some recent studies demonstrated following points：

1.Berberin inhibits the viability of HepG2 cell though induction of pyroptosis5.

2.Caspase 1 rescure the sensitivity of radiant lethality in prostate cancer 6.

3.Nlrp3−/− mice are susceptible to colitis associated colon cancer7.

According to these studies, we think pyroptosis can be exploited for tumor suppression.

Significance

Recent study demonstrated that GSDME was expressed in many normal cells but silenced in most cancer cells. So chemotherapy drug activate caspase-3-mediated pyroptosis in normal tissue but caspase-3-mediated apoptosis in cancer cells result in high efficacy of tissue damage but low efficacy of tumor kill8. Our project can trigger pyroptosis in cancer cells through targeted vector in order to switch this process(Fig 2). .(找美工画)

What else, the lysate of cell rupture during pyroptosis destroy tumor microenvironment. Pyroptosis not only releases "find me" signal and "eat me" signal9. "Find me" signal such as ATP attracts immune cell into tummor bed. Pyroptosis induce greater ATP release than apoptosis. These signals attract immune cell into tummor bed. On the other hand, ATP bind to purinergic P2RX7 receptors on DC, thus activating the NLRP3/ASC/caspase-1 inflammasome and secreting interleukin-1β (IL-1β) which is required for CD8+ T cells to releasing IFNγ which lysis tumour cells10. During pyroptosis, phosphatidylserineexternalization as a "eat me" signal to recruit macrophage to engulf the tumor cells(Fig 3).(找美工画)
