Model of macrophage endocytosis of HMGB1 induces pyroptosis. HMGB1 acting through RAGE on macrophages triggers dynamin-dependent endocytosis of HMGB1, which in turn initiates a cascade of cellular and molecular events. These include CatB activation and release from ruptured lysosomes followed by pyroptosome formation and caspase-1 activation, which promotes HMGB1-induced pyroptosis
