2024年12月25日 · ZBP1 acts as an essential mediator of pyroptosis, necroptosis and apoptosis (PANoptosis), an integral part of host defense against pathogens, by activating RIPK3, caspase-8 (CASP8), and the NLRP3 inflammasome (By similarity).

2024年7月9日 · Here, we show that ZBP1 condensate formation facilitates Z-NAs binding and antiviral signal transduction. The ZBP1 Zαβ dimerizes in a concentration-dependent manner, forming characteristic...

ZBP1 activated innate immunity, including type-I interferon (IFN-I) response and NF-κB signaling, constitutes an important line of defense against pathogenic infection. In addition, ZBP1-mediated PANoptosis is a double-edged sword in anti-infection, auto …

2024年5月28日 · ZBP1 is an interferon (IFN)-induced nucleic acid (NA) sensor that senses unusual Z-form NA (Z-NA) to promote cell death and inflammation. However, the mechanisms that dampen ZBP1 activation to fine-tune inflammatory responses are unclear.

2017年11月24日 · Here we review the history and emergence of ZBP1 as a pathogen sensor and a central regulator of cell death and inflammatory responses. We also discuss the gaps in our knowledge regarding the regulation and functions of ZBP1 and highlight potential avenues for future research.

2022年9月6日 · Z-conformation nucleic acid binding protein 1 (ZBP1), a powerful innate immune sensor, has been identified as the important signaling initiation factor in innate immune response and the multiple inflammatory cell death known as PANoptosis.

ZBP1 is an innate immune sensor for double-stranded nucleic acids adopting the Z conformation. Z-RNA/DNA is generated during viral infections and in autoinflammation and cancer. By inducing regulated cell death and proinflammatory signaling, ZBP1 plays multifaceted roles …

2023年6月22日 · Here, we show that mitochondrial genome instability promotes Z-form DNA accumulation. Z-DNA binding protein 1 (ZBP1) stabilizes Z-form mtDNA and nucleates a cytosolic complex containing cGAS, RIPK1, and RIPK3 to sustain STAT1 phosphorylation and type I interferon (IFN-I) signaling.

Here we review the history and emergence of ZBP1 as a pathogen sensor and a central regulator of cell death and inflammatory responses. We also discuss the gaps in our knowledge regarding the regulation and functions of ZBP1 and highlight potential avenues for future research.

Here, we discuss the role of ZBP1 in Z-RNA sensing, activation of programmed cell death, and inflammation. Also, we discuss how ZBP1 coordinates intracellular perturbations in homeostasis, and Z-nucleic acid formation to regulate chronic diseases and cancer.
