Exploration of the role of macrophage mitochondrial damage-mediated excessive pyroptosis in ITP
(ASH 2025)
- "A passive ITP mouse model was established, and both pyroptosis inhibitor disulfiram and Mdivi-1were used for intervention to evaluate changes in mitochondrial function, pyroptotic products, andplatelet levels...Conclusions Mitochondrial damage induces excessive pyroptosis in macrophages through the classical pyroptosispathway mediated by NLRP3/Caspase-1, thereby contributing to the pathogenesis of ITP. Thispathological process holds promise as a potential target for ITP intervention."

Repurposing of disulfiram as a novel therapeutic agent to treat crebbp-mutant diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL)
(ASH 2025)
- "Alterations in mitochondrial biology and function were observed to be CREBBP-mutant-specific, with Disulfiram-induced cytotoxicity found to be completely rescued following pre-treatment with the copper chelator TTM, but not pre-treatment with apoptosis (Z-VAD-FMK) andferroptosis inhibitors (Ferrostatin-1 and Liproxstatin-1), further confirming Disulfiram-inducedCuproptosis in our models.To test Disulfiram's safety and efficacy in vivo, we performed subcutaneous injection of CREBBP wild typeand mutant cells in NSG mice and observed no adverse effects on body weight, as well significantimpairment of tumour growth in our CREBBP-mutant model only. Finally, we validated thetherapeutic benefit of Disulfiram in vivo, showing that it was safe and effective at reducing tumourgrowth in CREBBP-mutant DLBCL xenografts. Overall, this data supports the provocative hypothesis thatDisulfiram could represent a novel, repurposed treatment option for patients with CREBBP-mutantDLBCL."

Targeting gasdermin D-mediated pyroptosis: a precision anti-inflammatory strategy for acute and chronic lung diseases.
(PubMed, Inflammopharmacology)
- "In addition, we performed a systematic evaluation of emerging therapeutic interventions such as direct pore formation inhibitors (disulfiram and necrosulfonamide), upstream caspase inhibitors (VX-765), and anti-inflammatory phytochemicals (andrographolide, emodin, and baicalin). This review reports that GSDMD is a promising therapeutic target for acute and chronic inflammatory lung disease. This study provides new mechanistic contributions and translational approaches to augment targeted anti-inflammatory interventions in respiratory care by precise pyroptosis modulation."

Andrographolide-induced PANoptosis underlies its multiple organ toxicity in mice.
(PubMed, Toxicol Appl Pharmacol)
- "Consistent with this, Andro induced lytic cell death was markedly attenuated by caspase-1 inhibitor VX-765, pan-caspase inhibitors (IDN-6556, Z-VAD-FMK) and GSDMD/E inhibitor (disulfiram). In addition, RIPK1 inhibition (by Nec-1) partially reduced cell death, confirming RIPK1-dependent necroptosis as a minor contributor. In conclusion, our data establish PANoptosis as an important mechanism of Andro-induced organ injury, providing a mechanistic framework for Andro's dichotomous bioactivity, informing evidence-based dosing strategies to maximize therapeutic efficacy while mitigating toxicity risks in clinical practice."

Revisiting the Disulfiram-Like Reaction Between Alcohol and Oral Metronidazole.
(PubMed, Sex Transm Dis)
- "While all four case reports and one older clinical trial reported a potential link between some oral 5-nitroimidazoles and DLR, 3 clinical trials, one cross-sectional chart review, and 2 experimental animal studies did not. Thus, the available evidence does not strongly support a clinically significant interaction between alcohol and oral MTZ, calling into question the need for strict alcohol abstinence during treatment."

Citrinin induces renal PANoptosis by mediating mitochondrial dysfunction through the GSDMD-N/DRP1 pathway.
(PubMed, J Hazard Mater)
- "Notably, disulfiram, a GSDMD-N inhibitor, also mitigated mitochondrial dysfunction and PANoptotic responses through the DRP1 pathway. Molecular docking and Co-IP assays confirmed a direct interaction between GSDMD-N and DRP1. Collectively, these findings reveal that CTN induces PANoptosis through GSDMD-N/DRP1-mediated mitochondrial dysfunction, offering new mechanistic insights into CTN-induced nephrotoxicity and highlighting potential therapeutic targets for mitigating mycotoxin-associated kidney injury."

GSDMD deficiency attenuates BPD by suppressing macrophage pyroptosis and promoting M2 polarization.
(PubMed, Cell Death Discov)
- "Using neonatal C57BL/6 wild-type (WT) and GSDMD-knockout (GSDMD-/-) mice, we established a hyperoxia-induced BPD model (85% FiO₂, 14 days) and administered the GSDMD inhibitor disulfiram (50 mg kg⁻¹ intraperitoneally, once daily for 7 days)...Collectively, these findings identify GSDMD-mediated macrophage pyroptosis as a critical driver of BPD-related lung injury. Targeted GSDMD inhibition, whether genetic or pharmacologic, alleviates experimental BPD by down-regulating IL-1β and promoting alveolar development, thereby providing a promising therapeutic avenue for this devastating neonatal disorder."

Evogliptin prevents ceramide-induced pyroptosis during calcification via modulation of NLRP3/GSDM-D mediated pathway in Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells.
(PubMed, PLoS One)
- "Furthermore, MCC950 (NLRP3 inhibitor), disulfiram (GSDM-D inhibitor) and evogliptin significantly downregulated osteogenic and pyroptotic markers including LDH release in both Pi-induced only and CER + Pi-treated VSMCs. Also, the cleavage efficiency of GSDM-D was high in Pi and CER + Pi groups which was reduced with prior treatment of evogliptin. Hence, our data demonstrate that evogliptin alleviates VC by blocking phenotypic transition and associated pyroptosis via modulation of NLRP3/GSDM-D mediated pathway in CER-induced VSMCs."

Repurposing Disulfiram in a Promising Combination Therapy for Cryptosporidiosis in Immunocompromised Mice.
(PubMed, Acta Trop)
- "Nitazoxanide (NTZ) is currently the only FDA-approved drug for cryptosporidiosis, yet its efficacy is significantly reduced in immunosuppressed hosts. Transmission electron microscopy confirmed full epithelial regeneration only in the dual therapy group, with intact microvilli, normal mitochondria, and restored cellular junctions. In conclusion, disulfiram, particularly when combined with NTZ, demonstrated enhanced anti-cryptosporidial efficacy and may serve as a promising adjunct therapy, mostly for immunocompromised patients."

Drug Repurposing in Veterinary Oncology: Myth or Reality?
(PubMed, Vet Sci)
- "The therapeutic agents discussed include non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (e.g., piroxicam), metabolic modulators (e.g., metformin), anti-parasitic drugs (e.g., fenbendazole), immunomodulators (e.g., thalidomide, oclacitinib), cardiovascular agents (e.g., propranolol, statins, losartan), and other compounds such as auranofin and disulfiram. Challenges to clinical implementation, including limited funding, regulatory and ethical considerations, and the need for well-designed, multi-institutional clinical trials, are discussed. Ultimately, drug repurposing represents a practical and translationally valuable approach to broaden therapeutic options, improve quality of life in companion animals, and advance comparative oncology by promoting progress that benefits both veterinary and human patients."

The Course of Neuroendocrine Healing With Abstinence In ICD-11 Alcohol Dependence
(Neuroscience 2025)
- " To test whether neuro-endocrine healing occurs in frequent, heavy drinkers, this study 1) compared heavy drinking AlcD test subjects (n=16) with light drinking control subjects (n=15) at baseline and then 2) assessed the test subjects prospectively at three, and six months of supervised, disulfiram assisted abstinence... These data indicate that neuro-endocrine healing occurs with abstinence but is gradual. Healing may take up to six months to reach its full potential. This suggests the possibility that 1) neuro-endocrine effects may impair complex cognition and decision making early in the healing course and 2) neuro-endocrine healing late in the course may account for the often unrealistic sense of well-being that occasions alcohol relapse."
