Disulfiram attenuates hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension by inhibiting GSDMD cleavage and pyroptosis in HPASMCs

Abstract Background Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is characterized by progressive pulmonary arterial remodelling, associated with different severities of inflammation and altered immune processes. Disulfiram eliminates the formation of N-gasdermin D (GSDMD) plasma membrane pores to prevent pyroptosis....
