Pyroptosis is a type of programmed cell death (PCD) accompanied by an inflammatory reaction and the rupture of a membrane. Pyroptosis is divided into a canonical pathway triggered by caspase-1, and a non-canonical pathway independent of caspase-1. More and more pyroptosis-related participants, pathways, and regulatory mechanisms have been exploited in recent years. Pyroptosis plays crucial roles in the initiation, progression, and metastasis of cancer and it affects the immunotherapeutic outcome by influencing immune cell infiltration as well. Extensive studies are required to elucidate the molecular mechanisms between pyroptosis and cancer. In this review, we introduce the discovery history of pyroptosis, delineate the signaling pathways of pyroptosis, and then make comparisons between pyroptosis and other types of PCD. Finally, we provide an overview of pyroptosis in different cancer types. With the progression in the field of pyroptosis, new therapeutic targets and strategies can be explored to combat cancer.
