Discussion

Experimental models reveal GSDMD's role in macrophage pyroptosis and inflammation in necrotizing enterocolitis, suggesting therapeutic potential.

GSDMD ablation significantly reduces intestinal inflammation in mice with NEC, indicating its crucial role.
Correlation established between GSDMD and macrophage pyroptosis in infants with NEC, highlighting a potential target.
GSDMD-deficient models demonstrated improved NEC symptoms and lower intestinal macrophage presence, showing its importance.
GSDMD inhibition enhances macrophage antibacterial abilities without affecting their phagocytic behavior, underscoring its functional nuances.
