Abstract

The clearance of intracellular pathogens requires the killing of infected cells, but it remains unclear why host cells have so many different means of inducing programmed cell death. Doerflinger et al. demonstrate that interconnectivity between pyroptosis and apoptosis involving flexible deployment of caspases ensures control of Salmonella infection in mice.
