The study by He et al identifies a novel mechanism by which peroxiredoxin 1 (Prdx1) inhibits CRC progression through induction of pyroptosis, a pro-inflammatory form of programmed cell death. Traditionally viewed as an intracellular antioxidant that protects tumors from oxidative stress, Prdx1 assu-mesa paradoxical immunogenic role when released extracellularly as a damageassociated molecular pattern. Using patient samples, recombinant protein assays, and murine xenograft models, the authors demonstrate that Prdx1 activates the NOD-, LRR- and pyrin domain-containing protein 3 inflammasome/caspase- 1/gasdermin D pathway, triggering membrane pore formation, tumor cell lysis, and release of interleukin-1β/interleukin-18 . This cascade not only halts tumor proliferation, invasion, and migration but may also enhance anti-tumor immune surveillance. The study’s strengths include rigorous mechanistic validation, clinical cohort data, inhibitor-based causal proof, and in vivo confirmation. However, questions remain regarding the upstream receptor for Prdx1, heterogeneity across CRC subtypes, and the balance between therapeutic benefit and inflammatory toxicity. By establishing Prdx1-induced pyroptosis as a driver of tumor suppression, this work advances a promising paradigm in CRC therapy, linking cell death to immune activation and pointing toward future biomarker-driven, pyroptosis-based interventions.  \nKey Words: Colorectal cancer; Peroxiredoxin 1; Pyroptosis; Damage-associated molecular pattern; Immunogenic cell death  \n©The Author(s) 2026.
