Abstract
Lytic cell death is crucial for antimicrobial and antitumor immunity; however, unchecked pyroptosis drives pathology in sepsis. Wright et al. demonstrate that widespread cell death following pyroptosis is propagated by extracellular vesicles (EVs) carrying gasdermin D (GSDMD) pores that become integrated into the membrane of neighboring cells, driving inflammatory cell death.
