Red blood cells undergo lytic programmed cell death involving NLRP3


Cell, May 2025



Highlights


• Complement activation induces a programmed death of RBCs, termed spectosis


• Assembly of miniNLRP3-ASC complex elicits caspase-8 maturation in RBCs


• Activated caspase-8 initiates β-spectrin proteolysis, causing hemolysis


• Suppressing miniNLRP3-signal-mediated β-spectrin breakdown alleviates hemolysis
