Here we report AWP28, an activity-based probe that can be used to biochemically monitor caspase-1 activation in response to pro-inflammatory stimuli. Using AWP28 we show that apoptosis is triggered upon bacterial infection in primary murine bone marrow macrophages lacking caspase-1. Furthermore we report that upon Salmonella infection, inflammasome-mediated caspase-1 activity is required to bypass apoptosis in favor of pro-inflammatory pyroptotic cell death.
