Endogenous HMGB1 regulates GSDME-mediated pyroptosis via ROS/ERK1/2/caspase-3/GSDME signaling in neuroblastoma.

Pyroptosis, a newly discovered mode of programmed cell death (PCD), is important in the regulation of cancer development. High mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) is a non-histone nuclear protein that is closely related to tumor development and chemotherapy resistance. However, whether endogenous HMGB1 regulates pyroptosis in neuroblastoma remains unknown.
