Sensing of cytosolic LPS through caspy2 pyrin domain mediates noncanonical inflammasome activation in zebrafish

Abstract: The noncanonical inflammasome is critical for cytosolic sensing of Gram-negative pathogens. Here, we show that bacterial infection induces caspy2 activation in zebrafish fibroblasts, which mediates pyroptosis via a caspase-5-like activity. Zebrafish caspy2 binds directly to lipopolysaccharide via the N-terminal pyrin death domain, resulting in caspy2 oligomerization, which is critical for pyroptosis. Furthermore, we show that caspy2 is highly expressed in the zebrafish gut and is activated during infection. Kn… Show more

“…Thus, whether noncanonical inflammasome activation exists in zebrafish, and which inflammatory caspases could mediate the noncanonical inflammasome activation to regulate pathogen clearance in fish, remains largely unknown. Very recently, a concurrent work in our laboratory has verified that the caspase‐5‐like‐activity‐dependent pyroptosis in zebrafish induced by E. piscicida 0909I is mediated by zebrafish caspy2 activation, which has the same substrate specificity as caspase‐5, and has also demonstrated the critical role of caspy2 in zebrafish noncanonical inflammasome activation and immune defence (D. Yang et al, ). These data, together with the evidence provided in this work, confirmed the existence of a noncanonical inflammasome pathway in zebrafish.…”

“…Not finding sex ratio differences in other LPS strains tested or other doses might be explained by the fact that sensitivity to the LPS response depends on the LPS bacterial origin species, serotype, doses, experimental concentrations and the time of duration of the exposure (Novoa et al, 2009). It is known that fish, together with amphibians, are J o u r n a l P r e -p r o o f resistant to the toxic effect of LPS as high doses are required to trigger an immune response when compared to mammals (Berczi et al, 1966;Sepulcre et al, 2009) and these differences were originated by diverse molecular strategies to recognize LPS (Chu and Mazmanian, 2013;Yang et al, 2018).…”
