Guo S, Zhang Y, Lian J, Su C, Wang H. The role of hydrogen sulfide in the regulation of necroptosis across various pathological processes. Mol Cell Biochem 2024:10.1007/s11010-024-05090-1. [PMID: 39138751 DOI: 10.1007/s11010-024-05090-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/06/2024] [Accepted: 08/05/2024] [Indexed: 08/15/2024]
Abstract
Necroptosis is a programmed cell death form executed by receptor-interacting protein kinase (RIPK) 1, RIPK3 and mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein (MLKL), which assemble into an oligomer called necrosome. Accumulating evidence reveals that necroptosis participates in many types of pathological processes. Hence, clarifying the mechanism of necroptosis in pathological processes is particularly important for the prevention and treatment of various diseases. For over 300 years, hydrogen sulfide (H2S) has been widely known in the scientific community as a toxic and foul-smelling gas. However, after discovering the important physiological and pathological functions of H2S, human understanding of this small molecule changed, believing that H2S is the third gas signaling molecule after carbon monoxide (CO) and nitric oxide (NO). H2S plays an important role in various diseases, but the related mechanisms are not yet fully understood. In recent years, more and more studies have shown that H2S regulation of necroptosis is involved in various pathological processes. Herein, we focus on the recent progress on the role of H2S regulation of necroptosis in different pathological processes and profoundly analyze the related mechanisms.

Joseph AM, Ahmed A, Goc J, Horn V, Fiedler B, Garone D, Grigg JB, Uddin J, Teng F, Fritsch M, Vivier E, Sonnenberg GF. RIPK3 and caspase-8 interpret cytokine signals to regulate ILC3 survival in the gut. Mucosal Immunol 2024:S1933-0219(24)00085-0. [PMID: 39137882 DOI: 10.1016/j.mucimm.2024.08.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/23/2024] [Revised: 08/07/2024] [Accepted: 08/08/2024] [Indexed: 08/15/2024]
Abstract
Group 3 innate lymphoid cells (ILC3s) are abundant in the developing or healthy intestine to critically support tissue homeostasis in response to microbial colonization. However, intestinal ILC3s are reduced during chronic infections, colorectal cancer, or inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and the mechanisms driving these alterations remain poorly understood. Here we employed RNA sequencing of ILC3s from IBD patients and observed a significant upregulation of RIPK3, the central regulator of necroptosis, during intestinal inflammation. This was modeled in mice where we found that intestinal ILC3s express RIPK3, with conventional (c)ILC3s exhibiting high RIPK3 and low levels of pro-survival genes relative to lymphoid tissue inducer (LTi)-like ILC3s. ILC3-specific RIPK3 is promoted by gut microbiota, further upregulated following enteric infection, and dependent upon IL-23R and STAT3 signaling. However, lineage-specific deletion of RIPK3 revealed a redundant role in ILC3 survival, due to a blockade of RIPK3-mediated necroptosis by caspase 8, which was also activated in response to enteric infection. In contrast, lineage-specific deletion of caspase 8 resulted in loss of cILC3s from the healthy intestine and all ILC3 subsets during enteric infection, which increased pathogen burdens and gut inflammation. This function of caspase 8 required catalytic activity induced by TNF or TL1A and was dispensable if RIPK3 was simultaneously deleted. Caspase 8 activation and cell death were associated with increased Fas on ILC3s, and the Fas-FasL pathway was upregulated by cILC3s during enteric infection, which could restrain the abundance of intestinal ILC3s. Collectively, these data reveal that interpretation of key cytokine signals controls ILC3 survival following microbial challenge, and that an imbalance of these pathways, such as in IBD or across ILC3 subsets, provokes depletion of tissue-protective ILC3s from the inflamed intestine.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which encompasses Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), is a complicated illness whose exact cause is yet unknown. Necroptosis is associated with IBD pathogenesis, leading to intestinal barrier abnormalities and uncontrolled inflammation. Molecules involved in necroptosis, however, exhibit different expression levels in IBD and its associated colorectal cancer. Multiple studies have shown that inhibiting these molecules alleviates necroptosis-induced IBD. Moreover, due to the severe scarcity of clinical medications for treating IBD caused by necroptosis, we review the various functions of crucial necroptosis molecules in IBD, the stimuli regulating necroptosis, and the current emerging therapeutic strategies for treating IBD-associated necroptosis. Eventually, understanding the pathogenesis of necroptosis in IBD will enable the development of additional therapeutic approaches for the illness.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the mechanism by which intestinal epithelial cell (IEC) death induces arthritis. METHODS IEC death was assessed by staining for necroptosis and apoptosis markers and fluorescence in situ hybridisation at different time points during collagen-induced arthritis (CIA). During the development of CIA, messenger RNA (mRNA) sequencing was performed, followed by Gene Ontology enrichment analysis of differentially expressed genes. Mice deficient for hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (Hif1a) in IECs (Hif1a ∆IEC) were generated and induced for arthritis. mRNA sequencing, chromatin immunoprecipitated (ChIP) DNA sequencing and ChIP-qualitative PCR were performed on IECs from Hif1a ∆IEC mice and littermate controls. Effects of HIF1α stabilisation by inhibition of prolyl hydroxylase domain-containing enzymes and treatment with the inhibitor of receptor-interacting protein kinase-3 (RIPK3) were tested in intestinal organoids and in CIA. RESULTS IEC underwent apoptotic and necroptotic cell death at the onset of arthritis, leading to impaired gut barrier function. HIF1α was identified as one of the most upregulated genes in IECs during the onset of arthritis. Deletion of Hif1a in IEC enhanced IEC necroptosis, triggered intestinal inflammation and exacerbated arthritis. HIF1α was found to be a key transcriptional repressor for the necroptosis-inducing factor RIPK3. Enhanced RIPK3 expression, indicating necroptosis, was also found in the intestinal epithelium of patients with new-onset rheumatoid arthritis. Therapeutic stabilisation of HIF1α as well as small-molecule-based RIPK3 inhibition rescued intestinal necroptosis in vitro and in vivo and suppressed the development of arthritis. CONCLUSION Our results identify IEC necroptosis as a critical link between the gut and the development of arthritis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Because of the delicate structure of the adipose tissue, fat necrosis accounts for 43.7% of all complications after autologous fat grafting; however, its regulation remains unclear. OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to examine the role of necroptosis in fat graft remodeling after grafting. METHODS Clinical fat graft necrosis samples were collected, and the expression levels of the necroptosis marker phosphorylated(p)-MLKL were analyzed. Transcriptome analysis was performed on fat grafts before and 1 week after transplantation in C57BL/6 mouse fat grafting models. Additionally, the in vivo effects of RIPK1 inhibitor Nec-1s or RIPK3 inhibitor GSK'872 on the fat grafting complications, including fat necrosis and fibrosis, were investigated. RESULTS Necroptosis markers were observed and associated with higher occurrence of fibrosis in clinical fat graft necrosis samples compared to normal fat tissue. Amplification and RNA-Seq were conducted on RNA isolated from fat grafts before and after grafting. MLKL, RIPK1, and RIPK3's expression levels were significantly upregulated in comparison to controls. Higher expression levels of necroptotic RNAs were associated with higher levels of DAMPs, including Cxcl2, HMGB1, S100a8, S100a9, Nlrp3, and IL33, and activated proinflammatory signaling pathways, including the TNF, NF-kappa B, and chemokine signaling pathways. Necroptotic inhibitor Nec-1s and GSK'872 robustly suppressed the p-MLKL expression level and significantly inhibited necroptotic cell death, especially in adipocytes. Moreover, administration of Nec-1s and GSK'872 significantly alleviated fat necrosis and subsequent fibrosis in fat grafts. CONCLUSIONS Collectively, our study findings highlight the potential therapeutic applications of necroptosis inhibitors in preventing fat necrosis and fibrosis after grafting. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 4

Abstract
Pathological cardiac hypertrophy is one of the major risk factors of heart failure and other cardiovascular diseases. However, the mechanisms underlying pathological cardiac hypertrophy remain largely unknown. Here, we identified the first evidence that TNFAIP3 interacting protein 3 (TNIP3) was a negative regulator of pathological cardiac hypertrophy. We observed a significant upregulation of TNIP3 in mouse hearts subjected to transverse aortic constriction (TAC) surgery and in primary neonatal rat cardiomyocytes stimulated by phenylephrine (PE). In Tnip3-deficient mice, cardiac hypertrophy was aggravated after TAC surgery. Conversely, cardiac-specific Tnip3 transgenic (TG) mice showed a notable reversal of the same phenotype. Accordingly, TNIP3 alleviated PE-induced cardiomyocyte enlargement in vitro. Mechanistically, RNA-sequencing and interactome analysis were combined to identify the signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 (STAT1) as a potential target to clarify the molecular mechanism of TNIP3 in pathological cardiac hypertrophy. Via immunoprecipitation and Glutathione S-transferase assay, we found that TNIP3 could interact with STAT1 directly and suppress its degradation by suppressing K48-type ubiquitination in response to hypertrophic stimulation. Remarkably, preservation effect of TNIP3 on cardiac hypertrophy was blocked by STAT1 inhibitor Fludaradbine or STAT1 knockdown. Our study found that TNIP3 serves as a novel suppressor of pathological cardiac hypertrophy by promoting STAT1 stability, which suggests that TNIP3 could be a promising therapeutic target of pathological cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure.

Exp Hematol Oncol 2024; 13:63. [PMID: 38926796 PMCID: PMC11200990 DOI: 10.1186/s40164-024-00531-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/20/2023] [Accepted: 06/20/2024] [Indexed: 06/28/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Cancer cells frequently evolve necroptotic resistance to overcome various survival stress during tumorigenesis. However, we have previously showed that necroptosis is widespread in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) and contributes to tumor progression and poor survival via DAMPs-induced migration and invasiveness in peri-necroptotic tumor cells. This implicated an alternative strategy that cancers cope with necroptotic stress by reprogramming a pro-invasive necroptotic microenvironment (NME). Here, we aim to decipher how necroptotic cells shape the NME and affect HNSCC progression. METHODS Both our pre-established cellular necroptotic model and newly established Dox-induce intratumoral necroptosis model were used to investigate how necroptosis affect HNSCC progression. Transcriptomic alterations in peri-necroptotic tumor cells were analyzed by RNA-seq and validated in the NME in mice and patients' samples. The differential DAMPs compositon among apopotosis. Necrosis, and necroptosis were analyzed by label-free proteomic technique, and the necroptosis-specific DAMPs were then identified and validated. The potential receptor for ISG15 were simulated using molecular docking and further validated by in vitro assays. Then the ISG15-RAGE axis was blocked by either knockdown of necroptotic-ISG15 release and RAGE inhibitor FPS-ZM1, and the impact on tumor progression were tested. Last, we further tested our findings in a HNSCC-patients cohort. RESULTS Necroptosis played a crucial role in driving tumor-cell invasiveness and lymphatic metastasis via tumor-type dependent DAMPs-releasing. Mechanistically, necroptotic DAMPs induced peri-necroptotic EMT via NF-κB and STAT3 signaling. Furthermore, intrinsic orchestration between necroptotic and cGAS-STING signaling resulted in producing a group of interferon stimulated genes (ISGs) as HNSCC-dependent necroptotic DAMPs. Among them, ISG15 played an essential role in reprogramming the NME. We then identified RAGE as a novel receptor for extracellular ISG15. Either blockage of ISG15 release or ISG15-RAGE interaction dramatically impeded necroptosis-driven EMT and lymphatic metastasis in HNSCC. Lastly, clinicopathological analysis showed high ISG15 expression in NME. Extensive necroptosis and high tumor-cell RAGE expression correlated with tumor progression and poor survival of HNSCC patients. CONCLUSIONS Our data revealed a previously unknown cGAS-ISG15-RAGE dependent reprogramming of the necroptotic microenvironment which converts the necroptotic stress into invasive force to foster HNSCC-cell dissemination. By demonstrating the programmatic production of ISG15 via necroptosis-cGAS orchestration and its downstream signaling through RAGE, we shed light on the unique role of ISG15 in HNSCC progression. Targeting such machineries may hold therapeutic potential for restoring intratumoral survival stress and preventing lymphatic metastasis in HNSCC.

Abstract
Receptor-interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3), a member of the receptor-interacting protein kinase (RIPK) family with serine/threonine protein kinase activity, interacts with RIPK1 to generate necrosomes, which trigger caspase-independent programmed necrosis. As a vital component of necrosomes, RIPK3 plays an indispensable role in necroptosis, which is crucial for human life and health. In addition, RIPK3 participates in the pathological process of several infections, aseptic inflammatory diseases, and tumors (including tumor-promoting and -suppressive activities) by regulating autophagy, cell proliferation, and the metabolism and production of chemokines/cytokines. This review summarizes the recent research progress of the regulators of the RIPK3 signaling pathway and discusses the potential role of RIPK3/necroptosis in the aetiopathogenesis of various diseases. An in-depth understanding of the mechanisms and functions of RIPK3 may facilitate the development of novel therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
Purinergic signaling plays a causal role in the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease. Among purinoceptors, only P2Y14R is positively correlated with inflammatory score in mucosal biopsies of ulcerative colitis patients, nevertheless, the role of P2Y14R in ulcerative colitis remains unclear. Here, based on the over-expressions of P2Y14R in the intestinal epithelium of mice with experimental colitis, we find that male mice lacking P2Y14R in intestinal epithelial cells exhibit less intestinal injury induced by dextran sulfate sodium. Mechanistically, P2Y14R deletion limits the transcriptional activity of cAMP-response element binding protein through cAMP/PKA axis, which binds to the promoter of Ripk1, inhibiting necroptosis of intestinal epithelial cells. Furthermore, we design a hierarchical strategy combining virtual screening and chemical optimization to develop a P2Y14R antagonist HDL-16, which exhibits remarkable anti-colitis effects. Summarily, our study elucidates a previously unknown mechanism whereby P2Y14R participates in ulcerative colitis, providing a promising therapeutic target for inflammatory bowel disease.

Abstract
The differentiation of resident intestinal macrophages from blood monocytes depends upon signals from the macrophage colony-stimulating factor receptor (CSF1R). Analysis of genome-wide association studies (GWAS) indicates that dysregulation of macrophage differentiation and response to microorganisms contributes to susceptibility to chronic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Here, we analyzed transcriptomic variation in monocyte-derived macrophages (MDM) from affected and unaffected sib pairs/trios from 22 IBD families and 6 healthy controls. Transcriptional network analysis of the data revealed no overall or inter-sib distinction between affected and unaffected individuals in basal gene expression or the temporal response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS). However, the basal or LPS-inducible expression of individual genes varied independently by as much as 100-fold between subjects. Extreme independent variation in the expression of pairs of HLA-associated transcripts (HLA-B/C, HLA-A/F and HLA-DRB1/DRB5) in macrophages was associated with HLA genotype. Correlation analysis indicated the downstream impacts of variation in the immediate early response to LPS. For example, variation in early expression of IL1B was significantly associated with local SNV genotype and with subsequent peak expression of target genes including IL23A, CXCL1, CXCL3, CXCL8 and NLRP3. Similarly, variation in early IFNB1 expression was correlated with subsequent expression of IFN target genes. Our results support the view that gene-specific dysregulation in macrophage adaptation to the intestinal milieu is associated with genetic susceptibility to IBD.

Sestrin2 maintains hepatic immune homeostasis and redox balance partially via inhibiting RIPK3-mediated necroptosis in metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis. Mol Metab 2024; 80:101865.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Necroptosis, a novel type of programmed cell death, is intricately associated with inflammatory response. Currently, most studies focus on the activation of necroptosis, while the mechanisms underlying the negative regulation of necroptosis remain poorly understood. METHODS The effects of sestrin2 (SESN2) overexpression or knockdown on the regulation of necroptosis were assessed in the TNFα/Smac-mimetic/Z-VAD-FMK (T/S/Z)-induced necroptosis model and palmitic acid (PA)-induced lipotoxicity model. Western-blot, co-Immunoprecipitation, Glutathione S-transferase pull-down, and confocal assays were employed to explore the regulatory mechanisms including protein-protein interactions and post-translational modification. Furthermore, we used GSK'872, a specific inhibitor of receptor-interacting serine/threonine-protein kinase (RIPK) 3, to evaluate the relationship between SESN2-related alterations and RIPK3-mediated necroptosis in T/S/Z-induced necroptosis model, PA-induced lipotoxicity model, and high-fat high-cholesterol diet (HFHCD)-induced non-alcoholic steatohepatitis model. RESULTS Our findings revealed that SESN2 was upregulated under conditions that induce necroptosis and functioned as a negative regulator of necroptosis. High levels of SESN2 could equipped hepatocytes with the ability to defend against necroptotic inflammation and oxidative stress. Mechanistically, SESN2 interacted with RIPK3 and tuned down necroptosis by inhibiting the phosphorylation of RIPK3, promoting the ubiquitination of RIPK3, and preventing the formation of the RIPK1/RIPK3 necrosome. The depletion of SESN2 resulted in excessive necroptosis, accompanied by increased fat accumulation, inflammation, and oxidative stress in the experimental steatohepatitis model. Blocking necroptosis by GSK'872 reduced the liberation of pro-inflammatory cytokines and reactive oxygen species generation, but not hepatocyte fat deposition, in both PA-treated SESN2 knockout cells and HFHCD-fed SESN2 knockout mice, suggesting that the activation of RIPK3-mediated necroptosis may partially account for the hyperinflammation and excessive oxidative stress induced by SESN2 deficiency. CONCLUSION Our results suggested that SESN2 inhibited RIPK3-mediated necroptosis; this regulation is an important for the immune homeostasis and the redox balance in the liver.

Abstract
Oxidative stress, which can be activated by a variety of environmental risk factors, has been implicated as an important pathogenic factor for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). However, how oxidative stress drives IBD onset remains elusive. Here, we found that oxidative stress was strongly activated in inflamed tissues from both ulcerative colitis patients and Crohn's disease patients, and it caused nuclear-to-cytosolic TDP-43 transport and a reduction in the TDP-43 protein level. To investigate the function of TDP-43 in IBD, we inducibly deleted exons 2 to 3 of Tardbp (encoding Tdp-43) in mouse intestinal epithelium, which disrupted its nuclear localization and RNA-processing function. The deletion gave rise to spontaneous intestinal inflammation by inducing epithelial cell necroptosis. Suppression of the necroptotic pathway with deletion of Mlkl or the RIP1 inhibitor Nec-1 rescued colitis phenotypes. Mechanistically, disruption of nuclear TDP-43 caused excessive R-loop accumulation, which triggered DNA damage and genome instability and thereby induced PARP1 hyperactivation, leading to subsequent NAD+ depletion and ATP loss, consequently activating mitochondrion-dependent necroptosis in intestinal epithelial cells. Importantly, restoration of cellular NAD+ levels with NAD+ or NMN supplementation, as well as suppression of ALKBH7, an α-ketoglutarate dioxygenase in mitochondria, rescued TDP-43 deficiency-induced cell death and intestinal inflammation. Furthermore, TDP-43 protein levels were significantly inversely correlated with γ-H2A.X and p-MLKL levels in clinical IBD samples, suggesting the clinical relevance of TDP-43 deficiency-induced mitochondrion-dependent necroptosis. Taken together, these findings identify a unique pathogenic mechanism that links oxidative stress to intestinal inflammation and provide a potent and valid strategy for IBD intervention.

Abstract
Dietary fructose is widely used in beverages, processed foods, and Western diets as food additives, and is closely related to the increased prevalence of multiple diseases, including inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). However, the detailed mechanism by which high fructose disrupts intestinal homeostasis remains elusive. The present study showed that high-fructose corn syrup (HFCS) administration exacerbated intestinal inflammation and deteriorated barrier integrity. Several in vivo experimental models were utilized to verify the importance of gut microbiota and immune cells in HFCS-mediated dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis. In addition, untargeted metabolomics analysis revealed the imbalance between primary bile acids (PBAs) and secondary bile acids (SBAs) in feces. Hence, high fructose was speculated to modulate gut microbiota community and reduced the relative abundance of Clostridium and Clostridium scindens at genus and species level respectively, followed by a decrease in SBAs, especially isoalloLCA, thereby affecting Th17/Treg cells equilibrium and promoting intestinal inflammation. These findings provide novel insights into the crosstalk between gut flora, bile acids, and mucosal immunity, and highlight potential strategies for precise treatment of IBD.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer worldwide. One of the main causes of colorectal cancer is inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which includes ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD). Intestinal epithelial cells (IECs), intestinal mesenchymal cells (IMCs), immune cells, and gut microbiota construct the main body of the colon and maintain colon homeostasis. In the development of colitis and colitis-associated carcinogenesis, the damage, disorder or excessive recruitment of different cells such as IECs, IMCs, immune cells and intestinal microbiota play different roles during these processes. This review aims to discuss the various roles of different cells and the crosstalk of these cells in transforming intestinal inflammation to cancer, which provides new therapeutic methods for chemotherapy, targeted therapy, immunotherapy and microbial therapy.

Abstract
Due to its unclear etiology, there is no specific medicine to cure the recurrent and incurable inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Unhealthy dietary habits unconsciously contributed to the progression of IBD, for example a High-Salt-Diet (HSD) is the most neglected and frequently adopted habit. However, the molecular mechanism of how HSD aggravates the progression of IBD has yet to remain uncovered. Herein, we focus on the hypothesis that necroptosis pathway may be involved in the process of IBD exacerbated by HSD. To this end, different gene expression (DEGs) profiles of human epithelia under hypertonic culture conditions were applied to screen candidate pathways. What's more, gene expression manipulation, immune microenvironment detection, RIPK3/MLKL gene knockout (KO), and wild-type (WT) mice were carried out to research the promotion of IBD progression under treatments of high salt intake. Based on our present results, gene expression profiles in human normal colon epithelia cell NCM460 were significantly changed under salt- or sucrose-induced hypertonic culture conditions. RIPK3 was significantly up-regulated under both conditions. Furthermore, mice colon epithelia cell CT26 growth was inhibited in a time- and dose-dependent manner by extra NaCl incubation. Autophagy, and Necroptosis pathways were activated and enhanced by LPS pretreatment. HSD significantly exacerbated DSS-induced IBD symptoms in vivo in a dose-dependent manner. Moreover, RIPK3-/- and MLKL-/- mice presented severe IBD symptoms in vivo. Overall, the results demonstrated that HSD aggravated the IBD progression via necroptosis activation, providing novel strategies and promising targets for the clinical treatment of IBD.

Abstract
A delicate balance between programmed cell death and proliferation of intestinal epithelial cells (IEC) exists in the gut to maintain homeostasis. Homeostatic cell death programs such as anoikis and apoptosis ensure the replacement of dead epithelia without overt immune activation. In infectious and chronic inflammatory diseases of the gut, this balance is invariably disturbed by increased levels of pathologic cell death. Pathological forms of cell death such as necroptosis trigger immune activation barrier dysfunction, and perpetuation of inflammation. A leaky and inflamed gut can thus become a cause of persistent low-grade inflammation and cell death in other organs of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, such as the liver and the pancreas. In this review, we focus on the advances in the molecular and cellular understanding of programmed necrosis (necroptosis) in tissues of the GI tract. In this review, we will first introduce the reader to the basic molecular aspects of the necroptosis machinery and discuss the pathways leading to necroptosis in the GI system. We then highlight the clinical significance of the preclinical findings and finally evaluate the different therapeutic approaches that attempt to target necroptosis against various GI diseases. Finally, we review the recent advances in understanding the biological functions of the molecules involved in necroptosis and the potential side effects that may occur due to their systemic inhibition. This review is intended to introduce the reader to the core concepts of pathological necroptotic cell death, the signaling pathways involved, its immuno-pathological implications, and its relevance to GI diseases. Further advances in our ability to control the extent of pathological necroptosis will provide better therapeutic opportunities against currently intractable GI and other diseases.

Cell Death Differ 2023; 30:1457-1471. [PMID: 36932155 PMCID: PMC10244424 DOI: 10.1038/s41418-023-01148-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 15.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2022] [Revised: 03/01/2023] [Accepted: 03/07/2023] [Indexed: 03/19/2023] Open
Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the gastrointestinal tract, which has been shown to increase the incidence of colorectal cancer. Recent studies have highlighted the role of ubiquitination, a post-translational modification, in the occurrence and development of colonic inflammation. Ovarian tumor deubiquitinase 6 A (OTUD6A) is a deubiquitinating enzyme, which regulates cell proliferation and tumorigenesis. In this study, we investigated the expression and role of OTUD6A in IBD. Wide-type or Otud6a-/- mice were used to develop dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)- or 2,6,4-trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS)-induced colitis model, as well as azoxymethane (AOM)/DSS-induced colitis-associated cancer model. Bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) were isolated from wild-type and Otud6a-/- mice to dissect molecular mechanisms. Our data show that OTUD6A deficiency attenuated DSS or TNBS-induced colitis, as well as AOM/DSS-induced colitis-related colon cancer in vivo. Bone marrow transplantation experiments further revealed that OTUD6A in myeloid cells was responsible for exacerbation of DSS-induced colitis. Mechanistically, OTUD6A directly bound to NACHT domain of NLRP3 inflammasome and selectively cleaved K48-linked polyubiquitin chains from NLRP3 at K430 and K689 to enhance the stability of NLRP3, leading to increased IL-1β level and inflammation. Taken together, our research identifies a new function of OTUD6A in the pathogenesis of colitis by promoting NLRP3 inflammasome activation, suggesting that OTUD6A could be a potential target for the treatment of IBD.

Abstract
Cell death includes programmed and nonprogrammed cell death. The former mainly includes ferroptosis, necroptosis, pyroptosis, autophagy, and apoptosis, while the latter refers to necrosis. Accumulating evidence shows that ferroptosis, necroptosis, and pyroptosis play essential regulatory roles in the development of intestinal diseases. In recent years, the incidence of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), colorectal cancer (CRC), and intestinal injury induced by intestinal ischemia-reperfusion (I/R), sepsis, and radiation have gradually increased, posing a significant threat to human health. The advancement in targeted therapies for intestinal diseases based on ferroptosis, necroptosis, and pyroptosis provides new strategies for treating intestinal diseases. Herein, we review ferroptosis, necroptosis, and pyroptosis with respect to intestinal disease regulation and highlight the underlying molecular mechanisms for potential therapeutic applications.

Abstract
As a hallmark of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), elevated intestinal epithelial cell (IEC) death compromises the gut barrier, activating the inflammatory response and triggering more IEC death. However, the precise intracellular machinery that prevents IEC death and breaks this vicious feedback cycle remains largely unknown. Here, we report that Grb2-associated binder 1 (Gab1) expression is decreased in patients with IBD and inversely correlated with IBD severity. Gab1 deficiency in IECs accounted for the exacerbated colitis induced by dextran sodium sulfate owing to sensitizing IECs to receptor-interaction protein kinase 3-mediated (RIPK3-mediated) necroptosis, which irreversibly disrupted the homeostasis of the epithelial barrier and promoted intestinal inflammation. Mechanistically, Gab1 negatively regulated necroptosis signaling through inhibiting the formation of RIPK1/RIPK3 complex in response to TNF-α. Importantly, administration of RIPK3 inhibitor revealed a curative effect in epithelial Gab1-deficient mice. Further analysis indicated mice with Gab1 deletion were prone to inflammation-associated colorectal tumorigenesis. Collectively, our study defines a protective role for Gab1 in colitis and colitis-driven colorectal cancer by negatively regulating RIPK3-dependent necroptosis, which may serve as an important target to address necroptosis and intestinal inflammation-related disease.

Abstract
Necroptosis has been demonstrated to contribute to brain injury in ischemic stroke, whereas A20 can exert anti-necroptosis effect via deubiquitinating receptor-interacting protein kinase (RIPK3) at k63 and it can be cleaved by MALT1. This study aims to explore whether MALT1 is upregulated in the brain during ischemic stroke and promotes brain cell necroptosis through enhancing the degradation of A20. Ischemic stroke model was established in Sprague Dawley rats by occlusion of the middle cerebral artery (MCA) for 2 h, followed by 24 h reperfusion, which showed brain injury (increase in neurological deficit score and infarct volume) concomitant with an upregulation of MALT1, a decrease in A20 level, and increases in necroptosis-associated protein levels [RIPK3, mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein (MLKL) and p-MLKL] and k63-ubiquitination of RIPK3 in brain tissues. Administration of MALT1 inhibitor (Ml-2) at 8 or 15 mg/kg (i.p.) at 1 h after ischemia significantly improved neurological function and reduced infarct volume together with a downregulation of MALT1, an increase in A20 level and decreases in necroptosis-associated protein levels and k63-ubiquitination of RIPK3. Similarly, knockdown of MALT1 could also reduce oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R)-induced injury in the cultured HT22 cells coincident with an increase in A20 level and decreases in necroptosis-associated protein levels and k63-ubiquitination of RIPK3. Based on these observations, we conclude that MALT1 promotes necroptosis in stroke rat brain via enhancing the degradation of A20, which leads to a decrease in the capability of A20 to deubiquitinate RIPK3 at k63 and a subsequent compromise in counteraction against the brain cell necroptosis.

Abstract
Background Ulcerative colitis (UC) is characterized by chronic, recurrent intestinal inflammation and intestinal epithelial injury including a wide range of epithelial cell death, ulcers, crypt abscesses, and the formation of fibrosis. The intestinal barrier dysfunction runs through the whole process of the occurrence and development of UC. A recent study revealed that an ubiquitin binding protein ABIN1 played a role in tissue homeostasis and autoimmunity diseases which involved in the anti-inflammatory response of intestinal epithelia cells. However, the roles of ABIN1 in ulcerative colitis pathogenesis remain unclear. Methods The mRNA and protein expression level of ABIN1 and necroptosis-associated genes (RIPK1, RIPK3, and MLKL) were conducted to investigate the relationship between ABIN1 and necroptosis in clinical UC specimens. Subsequently, the dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced mice colitis model was used to verify the ABIN1 function in vivo. Furthermore, we established ABIN1 gain and loss function assay in CACO-2 to confirm the mechanism in UC in vitro. Results We found that ABIN1, RIPK1, RIPK3, and MLKL were upregulated in UC sample and DSS-induced colitis. Upon TNF-α stimulation in the intestinal epithelia cell line, overexpression of ABIN1 significantly inhibits necroptosis in the intestinal inflammation model along with the reduction expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as IL1B, IL6, IL8, and TNF-α. Blocking RIPK1 by Nec-1s in vivo and in vitro dramatically alleviated the colitis and cell death which shares the same phenotype with ABIN1 overexpression. Conclusion Hence, the dysregulation of ABIN1 may relate to the uncontrolled necroptosis and inflammation in UC, and negatively regulate the occurrence and process of ulcerative colitis. ABIN1 activation may be considered a therapeutic strategy for UC.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a common inflammatory bowel disease, during which cell necroptosis plays key roles in driving inflammation initiation and aggravation. Previous studies reported Receptor Interacting Protein Kinase 3 (RIP3)-mediated necroptosis in multiple diseases, and RIP3 protein in Paneth cells significantly enriched in the intestines of both humans and mice. Therefore, we hypothesized targeting RIP3 to inhibit necroptosis may depress UC.
Methods
We classified clinical UC samples according to the modified Truelove & Witts criterion. The expression of RIP3 was measured by western blot and immunohistochemistry. Cell proliferation and apoptosis were analyzed by MTT assay and flow cytometry. ROS production and the secretion of inflammatory cytokines were measured by DCFH-DA probe and ELISA assay. TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB signaling pathway was analyzed by western blot. We established experimental colitis model in RIP3 knockout and wild-type mice and disease activity index (DAI) score was calculated. The expression and distribution of tight junction protein were analyzed by immunofluorescence. The ratio of CD4+Foxp3+ T cells in the spleen was detected by flow cytometry. Oxidative damage of mouse colon was assessed by detecting the levels of SOD, MDA and MPO. Data were analyzed by one-way ANOVA or student’s t test.
Results
The expression of RIP3 in human colon is positively associated with the severity of UC. RIP3 inhibitor GSK872 or RIP3 knockdown reverses the inhibitory effect of TNF-α on proliferation and the promoting effect of TNF-α on apoptosis and necrosis in human intestinal epithelial cells. In addition, RIP3 deficiency inhibits the secretion of inflammatory cytokines (IL-16, IL-17 and IFN-γ) and ROS production induced by TNF-α. In vivo, RIP3 inhibitor Nec-1 effectively improves DSS-induced colitis in mice. In mechanism, RIP3 depression could upregulate the proportion of CD4+Foxp3+ immunosuppressive Treg cells in the spleen while suppressed TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB signaling pathway and ROS generation, and all these anti-inflammation factors together suppress the secretion of inflammatory cytokines and necroptosis of intestinal epithelial cells.
Conclusions
This study preliminarily explored the regulating mechanism of RIP3 on UC, and Nec-1 may be a promising drug to alleviate the inflammation and necroptosis of the colon in UC patients.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the gastrointestinal tract. Although the pathophysiology of IBD is multifaceted, ubiquitination, a post-translational modification, has been shown to have essential roles in its pathogenesis and development. Ubiquitin-modifying enzymes (UMEs) work in synergy to orchestrate the optimal ubiquitination of target proteins, thereby maintaining intestinal homeostasis. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified multiple UME genes as IBD susceptibility loci, implying the importance of UMEs in IBD. Furthermore, accumulative evidence demonstrates that UMEs affect intestinal inflammation by regulating various aspects, such as intestinal barrier functions and immune responses. Considering the significant functions of UMEs in IBD, targeting UMEs could become a favorable therapeutic approach for IBD.

Salmonella pSLT-encoded effector SpvB promotes RIPK3-dependent necroptosis in intestinal epithelial cells. Cell Death Dis 2022; 8:44.

Abstract
Salmonella is one of the most important worldwide zoonotic pathogens. After invading a host orally, the bacteria break through the intestinal epithelial barrier for further invasion. Intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) play a crucial role in maintaining the integrity of the intestinal epithelial barrier. Necroptosis is considered one of the virulence strategies utilized by invasive Salmonella. Our previous work has shown that SpvB, an effector encoded by S. Typhimurium virulence plasmid (pSLT), promotes bacterial translocation via the paracellular route. However, it is still unknown whether SpvB could promote bacterial invasion through disrupting the integrity of IECs. Here, we demonstrated that SpvB promoted necroptosis of IECs and contributed to the destruction of the intestinal barrier during Salmonella infection. We found that SpvB enhanced the protein level of receptor-interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3) through inhibiting K48-linked poly-ubiquitylation of RIPK3 and the degradation of the protein in an autophagy-dependent manner. The abundant accumulation of RIPK3 upregulated the phosphorylation of MLKL, which contributed to necroptosis. The damage to IECs ultimately led to the disruption of the intestinal barrier and aggravated infection. In vivo, SpvB promoted the pathogenesis of Salmonella, favoring intestinal injury and colonic necroptosis. Our findings reveal a novel function of Salmonella effector SpvB, which could facilitate salmonellosis by promoting necroptosis, and broaden our understanding of the molecular mechanisms of bacterial invasion.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which include Crohn’s disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), exhibits a complex multifactorial pathogenesis involving genetic susceptibility, imbalance of gut microbiota, mucosal immune disorder and environmental factors. Recent studies reported associations between ubiquitination and deubiquitination and the occurrence and development of inflammatory bowel disease. Ubiquitination modification, one of the most important types of post-translational modifications, is a multi-step enzymatic process involved in the regulation of various physiological processes of cells, including cell cycle progression, cell differentiation, apoptosis, and innate and adaptive immune responses. Alterations in ubiquitination and deubiquitination can lead to various diseases, including IBD. Here, we review the role of E3 ubiquitin ligases and deubiquitinases (DUBs) and their mediated ubiquitination and deubiquitination modifications in the pathogenesis of IBD. We highlight the importance of this type of posttranslational modification in the development of inflammation, and provide guidance for the future development of targeted therapeutics in IBD.

Abstract
RIPK3 (receptor-interacting protein kinase 3) is a serine/threonine-protein kinase. As a key component of necrosomes, RIPK3 is an essential mediator of inflammatory factors (such as TNFα-tumor necrosis factor α) and infection-induced necroptosis, a programmed necrosis. In addition, RIPK3 signaling is also involved in the regulation of apoptosis, cytokine/chemokine production, mitochondrial metabolism, autophagy, and cell proliferation by interacting with and/or phosphorylating the critical regulators of the corresponding signaling pathways. Similar to apoptosis, RIPK3-signaling-mediated necroptosis is inactivated in most types of cancers, suggesting RIPK3 might play a critical suppressive role in the pathogenesis of cancers. However, in some inflammatory types of cancers, such as pancreatic cancers and colorectal cancers, RIPK3 signaling might promote cancer development by stimulating proliferation signaling in tumor cells and inducing an immunosuppressive response in the tumor environment. In this review, we summarize recent research progress in the regulators of RIPK3 signaling, and discuss the function of this pathway in the regulation of mixed lineage kinase domain-like (MLKL)-mediated necroptosis and MLKL-independent cellular behaviors. In addition, we deliberate the potential roles of RIPK3 signaling in the pathogenesis of different types of cancers and discuss the potential strategies for targeting this pathway in cancer therapy.

TNFAIP3 Interacting Protein 3 Is an Activator of Hippo-YAP Signaling Protecting Against Hepatic Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury. Hepatology 2021; 74:2133-2153.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Hepatic ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury, a common clinical problem that occurs during liver surgical procedures, causes a large proportion of early graft failure and organ rejection cases. The identification of key regulators of hepatic I/R injury may provide potential strategies to clinically improve the prognosis of liver surgery. Here, we aimed to identify the role of tumor necrosis factor alpha-induced protein 3-interacting protein 3 (TNIP3) in hepatic I/R injury and further reveal its immanent mechanisms. APPROACH AND RESULTS In the present study, we found that hepatocyte TNIP3 was markedly up-regulated in livers of both persons and mice subjected to I/R surgery. Hepatocyte-specific Tnip3 overexpression effectively attenuated I/R-induced liver necrosis and inflammation, but improved cell proliferation in mice, whereas TNIP3 ablation largely aggravated liver injury. This inhibitory effect of TNIP3 on hepatic I/R injury was found to be dependent on significant activation of the Hippo-YAP signaling pathway. Mechanistically, TNIP3 was found to directly interact with large tumor suppressor 2 (LATS2) and promote neuronal precursor cell-expressed developmentally down-regulated 4-mediated LATS2 ubiquitination, leading to decreased Yes-associated protein (YAP) phosphorylation at serine 112 and the activated transcription of factors downstream of YAP. Notably, adeno-associated virus delivered TNIP3 expression in the liver substantially blocked I/R injury in mice. CONCLUSIONS TNIP3 is a regulator of hepatic I/R injury that alleviates cell death and inflammation by assisting ubiquitination and degradation of LATS2 and the resultant YAP activation.TNIP3 represents a promising therapeutic target for hepatic I/R injury to improve the prognosis of liver surgery.

Abstract
Chronic inflammatory disorders are characterised by aberrant and exaggerated inflammatory immune cell responses. Modes of extrinsic cell death, apoptosis and necroptosis, have now been shown to be potent drivers of deleterious inflammation, and mutations in core repressors of these pathways underlie many autoinflammatory disorders. The receptor-interacting protein (RIP) kinases, RIPK1 and RIPK3, are integral players in extrinsic cell death signalling by regulating the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as tumour necrosis factor (TNF), and coordinating the activation of the NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome, which underpin pathological inflammation in numerous chronic inflammatory disorders. In this review, we firstly give an overview of the inflammatory cell death pathways regulated by RIPK1 and RIPK3. We then discuss how dysregulated signalling along these pathways can contribute to chronic inflammatory disorders of the joints, skin, and gastrointestinal tract, and discuss the emerging evidence for targeting these RIP kinases in the clinic.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) including Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) seriously affects the quality of life for patients. The pathogenesis of IBD contains the environmental, host genetic and epigenetic factors. In recent years, the studies of protein ubiquitination, an important protein post-translational modification as an epigenetic factor, have emerged in the pathogenesis and development of IBD. In the past few years, accumulative evidence illustrated that six E3 ubiquitin ligases, namely, ring finger protein (RNF) 183, RNF 20, A20, Pellino 3, TRIM62 and Itch, exhibited clear mechanisms in the development of IBD. They regulate the intestinal inflammation by facilitating the ubiquitination of targeted proteins which participate in different inflammatory signaling pathways. Besides, it was reported that some deubiquitinating enzymes such as Cylindromatosis and USP7 were involved in the development of IBD, but the molecular mechanism was still unclear. This review summarized the role and regulatory mechanism of protein ubiquitination in the pathogenesis and development of IBD, providing insights to develop a new therapeutic strategy in IBD treatments.

Abstract
Necroptosis is a caspases-independent programmed cell death displaying intermediate features between necrosis and apoptosis. Albeit some physiological roles during embryonic development such tissue homeostasis and innate immune response are documented, necroptosis is mainly considered a pro-inflammatory cell death. Key actors of necroptosis are the receptor-interacting-protein-kinases, RIPK1 and RIPK3, and their target, the mixed-lineage-kinase-domain-like protein, MLKL. The intestinal epithelium has one of the highest rates of cellular turnover in a process that is tightly regulated. Altered necroptosis at the intestinal epithelium leads to uncontrolled microbial translocation and deleterious inflammation. Indeed, necroptosis plays a role in many disease conditions and inhibiting necroptosis is currently considered a promising therapeutic strategy. In this review, we focus on the molecular mechanisms of necroptosis as well as its involvement in human diseases. We also discuss the present developing therapies that target necroptosis machinery.
