Abstract

Background: Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA) is a rare airway disorder primarily affecting patients with asthma and cystic fibrosis. Persistent airway inflammation brought on by exacerbates the underlying condition and can cause significant respiratory damage. Treatments center on reducing inflammation with the use of corticosteroids and antifungals. PANoptosis is a new concept in the field of cell death and inflammation that posits the existence of cross talk and a master control system for the 3 programmed cell death (PCD) pathways, namely, apoptosis, pyroptosis, and necroptosis. This concept has revolutionized the understanding of PCD and opened new avenues for its exploration. Studies show that is one of the pathogens that is capable of activating PANoptosis via the Z-DNA binding protein 1 (ZBP1) pathway and plays an active role in the inflammation caused by this organism.

Objective: This article explores the nature of inflammation in ABPA and ways in which PCD could lead to novel treatment options.

Method: PubMed was used to review the literature surrounding infection-related inflammation and PANoptosis.

Results: There is evidence that apoptosis and pyroptosis protect against induced inflammation, whereas necroptosis promotes inflammation.

Conclusion: Experimental medications, in particular, necroptosis inhibitors such as necrosulfonamide and necrostatin-1, should be studied for use in the treatment of ABPA.
